 The Queen pays tribute to Manchester voluntary organisation

Mood Swings Network, a small Manchester based charity, has received the prestigious Queens Award for Voluntary Service which is equivalent to an MBE.  This National Honour recognises the excellence of the work the charity does in supporting people recovering from severe emotional difficulties and helping their friends and relatives. 

The Charity will receive a certificate signed by the Queen and an exclusive commemorative crystal.  These will be presented by Her Majesty’s representative in Manchester, Mr Warren Smith at a special ceremony arranged by the Lieutenancy office.  Group representatives have also received an invitation to a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace in the summer.

Speaking of their success, Tom McAlpine the Chair of Mood Swings Network said, “ We are thrilled to have received this prestigious honour for the work the charity does.  Volunteers are the backbone of our organisation and this award is a tribute to them.”
