The Awards night was a fabulous success. Everyone had a great time, and we had some inspiring speeches from our speakers. People made new friends and greeted old ones.
We waited to announce the winners until all of them had received their awards, and the one who wasn’t able to attend has just received theirs, so here they all are (Photos of the recipients to come as soon as we receive them).
Thank you everyone for your support, it was a lovely night and the music was great too. Thank you to all the dancing girls 🙂 (And boys!) Next year there won’t be any restrictions on numbers (better not be!) so bigger and better!
Our awards night went off brilliantly! Thank you to our team for all their hard work in putting it on, and thank you to our partners and participants. We could not have done it without you!
