The honour is a recognition for more than 30 years of work in palliative care and for making a difference to the communities in which the charity is so active.
Hannam, who heard she had been nominated just before Christmas 2023, told SUR in English she was very “nervous” when collecting the medal, adding, “but it is a salute to Cudeca and its founder Joan Hunt”.
