We’re incredibly proud to celebrate our very own Emma Hewitt on being awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours 🎉

Emma’s leadership has always been about joining the dots – bringing together partners, employers and communities across Plymouth to create a truly connected skills system that changes lives.

Her impact goes far beyond the day job. Emma’s passion for Plymouth and her commitment to making a difference shines through in everything she does, as she works tirelessly to bring people together and achieve more for our city.

This recognition is so richly deserved and marks a proud moment for the entire Skills and Post-16 team and our partners.
