Six philanthropists receive royal accolade
Six individuals have been awarded the Prince of Wales Medal for Arts Philanthropy 2011 in recognition of their support and generosity towards the UK's arts and cultural sector.
Lloyd Dorfman; Jonathan Ruffer; and Lady Hobson were among the recipients to receive their medal from HRH The Prince of Wales at Clarence House on 17 November.
Mike and Jean Oglesby and Theresa Sackler were also recipients of the accolade, which was created by Arts and Business to recognise those who support the UK arts industry.
Arts and Business chief executive Colin Tweedy said: "These honourees tell very different stories. They come from different worlds and have given and supported the arts in many different ways.
"What unites them is an unfailing belief in the importance of the arts and the desire and commitment to see the arts flourish."
