Deborah with Vernon

Deborah and Vernon Kay at Bolton University

I’ve just got back from Bolton University’s Awards Ceremony in The Victoria Hall. I was invited as a VIP guest and was most certainly looked after by their wonderful staff. I was seated on the front row next to Vernon Kays lovely parents and his beautiful little girl Phoebe who’s only 4 years old and sat their for 2 hours.

Vernon was awarded an honoury doctorate and was incredibly proud in fact so much so he was tearful on giving his thanks.

There was also a packed hall of very proud friends and family who were there to see their sons/daughters/friends receive their honour. This was our town at it’s best!

I was then treated to a very nice lunch back at the University in The Chancellor’s Building. My thanks go to the Vice Chancellor George and all his staff for making such a lovely day run so smoothly for all concerned. Here I am pictured with Vernon at lunch.
