OM of the Year
The OM of the Year Award was instituted in 2000 to celebrate the achievements of OMs in a wide range of fields in the UK and worldwide.
Our list of OMs of the Year is long and impressive. We have honoured OMs across a wide range of professions and achievements, including authors, international sportsmen and Olympic champions, media personalities, West End theatre and film directors, gardeners, musicians, national and industrial leaders, politicians, entrepreneurs, pioneering doctors and charity and humanitarian workers, from all over the world.
Our annual OM of the Year ceremony is an event that we look forward to as an opportunity to congratulate the successes of our wonderful alumni.
