On Friday 7 February 2025, Peter Faulding the founder and CEO of Specialist Group International (SGI) and Mr Stephen Owen-Hughes (Deputy Lieutenant of Surrey) proudly welcomed Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal to their headquarters in Dorking, Surrey. 

An important part of the day was dedicated to raising awareness about the Lucas Dobson Water Safety Campaign. The campaign, established in memory of six-year-old Lucas Dobson who tragically drowned in 2018, aims to promote water safety and prevent further tragedies. The Princess Royal learned more about this vital campaign and met Nathan Dobson, Lucas’s father, whose personal loss has inspired other significant community impact and safety initiatives. St John's and Surrey Hills, who have received free lifejackets as part of the water safety campaign, were also proudly in attendance and gave testimony to the Princess Royal about the positive impact that the water safety initiative has already made.
