It is with immense pride that I congratulate these two outstanding members of our Hounslow community for being recognised in the King’s Birthday Honours.
This recognition is a testament to their dedication and contribution to our borough.
For the Rev Clarke, this honour is a well-deserved recognition of her commitment to supporting and uplifting the residents of Hounslow. She is a pillar of strength and compassion within our community.
It is clear that Selwyn Boothe has been a beacon of support and inspiration at Gunnersbury School. His work has undoubtedly had a profound impact on the lives of the students.
On behalf of Hounslow Council and the entire borough, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Claire and Selwyn for their inspirational contribution to life in Hounslow.
We hope this great work continues for many years to come.
