Anyone can nominate someone for an honour at any time of the year (although
you can not nominate yourself!). If you know someone who is doing something
which is outstanding why not nominate them? Nominations can be made through
the Ceremonial Secretariat at the Cabinet Office or through GOSW's honours
contacts (details below), who can also give you guidance.
