She was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 1973 New Year Honours and was later promoted to Commander (CBE) in the 1990 Birthday Honours and Dame Commander (DBE) in the 2000 Birthday Honours.

Her outstanding service to sport and the community in Northern Ireland was further acknowledged with the title of Member of the Order of the Companions of Honour (CH) in the 2015 New Year Honours. In 2017, she was made a Dame of the Order of Saint John (DStJ).

Lady Mary Peters’ unparalleled legacy is immortalized in Northern Ireland, where the premier athletics track on the outskirts of Belfast bears her name. A statue within the track serves as a tribute to her enduring impact.
