Recently in Napier, Dame Cindy presided over a ceremony investing 15 postulants into the Order of St John. Each postulant was recognised for their outstanding contributions to Hato Hone St John in areas across the organisation, working as staff or volunteers in community health, ambulance operations, clinical standards, peer support, community programmes, local area committees, human resources, and education. Dr Davies was among those recognised at the investiture, becoming a Commander of the Order of St John, reflecting his role as Hato Hone St John’s Patron of Community Health Services.
At the investiture, Dame Cindy also presented Lily Wilson with the award of National Cadet of the Year 2025.
