An Investiture is a very special day when someone who has been awarded an honour receives an award in person from The Queen, or a Member of the Royal Family. The investee visits a Royal residence, usually Buckingham Palace, with members of their family, to receive their insignia.

On 7th June 2022, David Jonathan (Johny) of the Grassroots Programme, Luton Council of Faiths and the Near Neighbours Programme was invited to Buckingham Palace to receive from Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, an MBE Award for his services to community cohesion and interfaith relations in Luton.
