Presentation of Award Certificates
The presentation of certificates may be made at a special Court Meeting held prior to one of the Company’s major functions; the Livery Dinner in May or the Trophies and Awards banquet in October. Alternatively, it has also become the practice over the years that Certificates for serving (or recently retired) military personnel may be presented at a Service Awards Presentation, or a Dinner at their own or a nearby Unit.
