Former Honorary Colonel Mrs Joan Christie CVO OBE

The former Lord Lieutenant for County Antrim, took a very close interest in the development of our cadets, and was a regular visitor to our events. Her inspiration, positive attitude, sense of humour and strong support will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with her son and daughters and the wider family circle at this difficult and sad time.”
