First Women Awards
Sunday 14th June 2015
On Thursday this week I went to The First Women Awards in Grosvenor Square. My Godmother (pictured bottom left) was presenting an award as she was sponsoring the awards. This meant that I was lucky enough to get an invite to the event.
This was such an inspirational evening and it really opened my eyes to the wide array of incredible achievements so many women have attained in the world of business, from engineering to finance. It was also very empowering as the main message carried through the evening was that women have a duty to support and better the lives of other women. I want to spread this message to more women, so therefore I urge you to make it your mission to aid other women to succeeed or recognise their achievements. As Katja Hall said, "I look forward to a day when everyone has the best chance to succeed in work, whoever they are, whatever their background. For me, that wouldn’t just represent progress, it would be a real turning point for wider diversity.” |
