The
WILLIAM
KEOWN
Trust
Certificates were awarded to the following:
The William Keown Trust, which is based in Dundrum, reached a milestone in June, when they celebrated
the 40th Anniversary of their Personal Achievement Awards. This awards ceremony is always a very special
day in both the life of the Trust and the recipients. This year, as in recent years, the ceremony was held at the
Lagan Valley Island Conference Centre in Lisburn, when eighteen carers, nineteen children, four adults and
two special awards were given. The chairman to the Trust, Philip Beattie, welcomed all to the awards ceremony
and made reference to the late Bill Keown, the founder of the Trust and said Bill was a great inspiration to
all he met. Philip then called upon the Mayor of Lisburn and Castlereagh, Councillor Alan Givan, to welcome
everyone to the Borough of Lisburn. The Mayor, in welcoming all present, made mention of the various places
of interest within the Borough that he hoped all would get an opportunity over the summer to visit. He also
made reference to the late Bill Keown, and said he was an extraordinary person, who had a passion and a very
determined nature, especially to inspire for the benefits of those who, because of their disability, had to view
life from a dierent perspective.
