Presentation of British Empire Medal – Elizabet McLean

The Lord-Lieutenant, Sheriff Iona McDonald OBE recently presented a British Empire Medal to Elizabeth McLean, who is the store manager at Co-op’s store on the Isle of Arran.
Elizabeth was awarded her BEM for services to the food industry as part of the response to the Covid 19 pandemic by putting her store at the centre of the Isle of Arran’s community response to the crisis, including working round the clock to ensure deliveries were made to hundreds of elderly and vulnerable members of the community. This also involved liaising with local food banks and social services.
