Catherine Wahlberg, Operations and Finance Member at Alsters Kelley said:
“We are delighted to be sponsoring and being part of the Woman Who Achieves Awards for a third year. The Awards last year were brilliant and the standard of entries was incredible, an indication of what a strong and vibrant region we work in.
We are particularly thrilled to be sponsoring two Awards this year; Woman Who Achieves for Charity and Woman Who Achieves for a Social Enterprise. As a local business we try and support a range of local charities and all the people we come across who work for these organisations are all incredible and deserve so much recognition.
We really enjoyed this year’s Lunch Awards. As sponsors we take great pride in our contribution to supporting women in business, helping to build confidence and having an effective voice. The Awards were a real celebration of their achievements. It was great to meet so many inspirational women and those who support them.”
Woman Who is delivered in partnership with the FSB (Federation of Small Businesses) East & West Midlands Regions.
