Finally, Melissa Fry was honoured with the Milsted Langdon Business Prize 2011 during a presentation at Queen’s College. Milsted Langdon partner Nigel Fry presented the award.

Commenting on the awards, Jonathan Langdon said: “On behalf of the firm, I would like to congratulate all three students on winning these well-deserved awards through their hard work and commitment.
