A Very Proud Moment for the Bedwins Family
We are incredibly proud to share some wonderful news.
Erica Maxwell, has been awarded the British Empire Medal (BEM) in The King’s Birthday Honours, and as a family business, we couldn’t be happier to see her dedication recognised in this way.
For those who know Erica, this honour will come as no surprise. Bedwins has always been built on hard work, family values, and looking after people, and Erica has embodied those principles every step of the way.
Over the years, she has played a huge part in shaping Bedwins into the business it is today. Whether supporting customers, guiding our team, or helping the business grow through changing times, Erica has always led with determination, kindness, and an unwavering commitment to doing things the right way.
As a daughter, mother, sister, business owner, and an important part of the Bedwins story, she has dedicated so much of her time and energy not only to the business but also to the wider community. Her passion, resilience, and genuine care for others are qualities that everyone who works with her sees every day.
This award is a recognition of years of hard work and service, and it is one that is richly deserved.
From all of us at Bedwins / Wallace’s – family, friends, colleagues, – congratulations, Erica. We are incredibly proud of everything you have achieved and delighted to see you receive this special honour.
Congratulations, Erica Maxwell BEM.
