So the Duchess of Cambridge has been made a life time member of the Royal Photographic Society for her photos of her family. It seems that mediocrity can be rewarded if you are just high enough up the social ladder?
What other awards might be given for efforts that are maybe just good enough but certainly NOT exceptional?

That's a great idea merlotgran it would be an all round winner and really make a difference for the person who got it.

She got the award because of who she is, to draw attention to the Society. No doubt she thinks she deserves it.

The Duchess is a beautiful woman with gorgeous children. She has a keen mind or she wouldn't have graduated St. Andrews. There's no need to bash the Duchess.
