DCMS writes:
The Department for Culture Media and Sport has asked the heritage sector to identify potential candidates from within the UK heritage and conservation sectors for the 2015 New Years Honours list.
Since the Order of the British Empire was founded, there were more women on the entire 2014 New Years Honours list than men – 611 to 584. DCMS would like to thank those organisations who have helped bring more female candidates forward in 2014, and are very keen to match, if not increase, these numbers for the 2015 New Year Honours list. DCMS also asks the same for black and ethnic minority candidates.
The deadline for nominations for the 2015 New Year Honours list isFriday 5 April. Completed nominations should be emailed to NY15Noms@Culture.gsi.gov.uk.
