We are thrilled to congratulate Carolyn, who this week received her well-deserved award in recognition of her inclusion in the King’s 2025 New Year Honours List. She collected her award as part of the Investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle.

The title recognises Carolyn’s extensive contribution to supporting patients with intestinal failure. Carolyn’s advocacy work in this field spans almost four decades and is rooted in her own experience as a person with intestinal failure who is fed intravenously with parenteral nutrition. BAPEN is delighted to see that Carolyn’s fierce commitment to improve standards of nutritional care and patient experience has been recognised in this way.
