Mr Borrow-Longain was honoured to be invested as a Knight Commander of the Order of St
Michael of the Wing, by the Head of the Royal Family of Portugal HRH The Duke of Braganza.

The Royal Equestrian and Military Order of Saint Michael of the Wing is a Portuguese Roman
Catholic dynastic order that is believed to have been founded in 1147 in the Alcobaça Monastery
in Alcobaça, Portugal, by King Afonso I of Portugal, in commemoration of the Conquest of
Santarém from the Moors in 1147. The name was chosen in honour of the military Saint
Archangel Michael, who assisted in the victory in the shape of a wing in the sky.

Membership in the order may be bestowed upon individuals of any citizenship, religion, or
gender for recognised outstanding contributions to Portuguese royal charities or for the spread of devotion to Saint Michael, traditionally venerated as Angel of Portugal and Angel of Peace.
