In the local parlance of Oxfordshire, Margie might be described as "a good 'ole boy". For your information Margie, the word 'boy' in this context is generic. It is though the highest accolade you can get round these parts.
Congratulations.

Yes, this award is the one that recognises services to the local community (as opposed to the others which seem to be for being good at your job, famous, a good actor or sportsperson!) It recognises her work for Meals on Wheels, TGT, St Mary's Church and Riding for the Disabled, amongst others. It's well deserved as many have said.

Again, as a Trustee for 5 years, Margie was that rare driving force that kept us all moving forward regardless of setbacks & challenges. We'll deserved recognition of all of Margies' involvement in the local community.

Thank you all very much for your kind words. So many people put so much time and energy into the project over so many years - Charlbury is rich with volunteers. We are glad to be a part of this community.

I just saw the news item about Margie Glasgow on the New Year's Honours list, and wanted to say how very well deserved it is. I was a trustee while Margie was Chair of the TGT and saw how many many hours, day and night she committed, and I believe without her we wouldn't have a Community Centre. Her energy and enthusiasm buoyed up the rest of the trustees when they flagged, and her tireless leadership and complete belief in the project was just amazing! I am so pleased and proud that it has been recognised.
