Salisbury's Anne Baker awarded MBE in New Year's Honours
MBE recipients Anne Baker from Salisbury, who at 106 years old, received an MBE for fundraising for the NSPCC. Anne said: “It was a great surprise and a great honour because I felt as if I didn’t deserve it at all. “I’ve just been helping the NSPCC for about 50 years - I always have the party in my garden, which normally makes about £1,000 a year which is lovely. “We couldn’t hold it this year but we still managed to raise £4,000 instead of having our usual party, so we were pleased and grateful to everyone who contributed to that.
