Duncan’s prestigious awards

Duncan Goose has won another two prestigious global awards. In recognition of World Water Day 2008, PlayPumps International honoured Duncan for his instrumental role and continuing efforts to bring clean drinking water to the 1.1 billion people in the world who need it. Duncan was presented with his award by former chief executive officer and chairman of AOL, Steve Case, in a ceremony in Washington, US.

 

Duncan has also been presented with a Paul Harris Fellowship Award by The Rotary Club, an honour given to people to recognise their work in the charitable sector.  The Paul Harris Fellowship Award is especially unique for Duncan as is it rarely bestowed upon people who are non-Rotary members.
