(Kaieteur News) – It is not every day that a 28-year-old Guyanese girl gets to meet the King but for Kelly Hyles, an ambitious and driven young scholar, this dream became a reality on October 13, 2026.
Hyles, a Harvard Graduate and medical student that was born and raised in Vryheid’s Lust, East Coast Demerara, was invited to London on October 13 where she was awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Commonwealth Trust 100 Young Leaders Award.
Hyles was recognised by the royal family for her work within her non-profit organisation, Gears for Success, and her dedication to increasing access to educational opportunities for students in underserved communities across Guyana.
