Archbishop Geoffrey was also awarded the medal for his service as a former Managing Director of ABM.

Arrangements are in progress for others nominees of the Coaldrake Award who were unable to attend on the night. The Rev David Corbett and Mrs Alison Corbett were presented with their medals on 29 July before he sadly passed away last month.
