Zoe Holland, chief commercial officer at Fletchers Group, has been awarded an MBE in the king’s birthday honours for her services to charity. 

Holland is vice chair of the Solicitors’ Charity and parent ambassador for Young Minds.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, she founded the charity Silk Elephant, which delivers gifts, care packages and other ‘simple acts of loving kindness’ to vulnerable people and bereaved families across the world. Recipients include families of brain and spinal injured and terminally ill children as well as children and adults with severe autism.

She also launched an international ‘kindness exchange’ with a charity in the US to support elderly people during the pandemic.
