The Rising Star Award celebrates those in full time education, undertaking a recognised training course or apprenticeship.
What a great opportunity to recognise your daughter, niece, or a young colleague in your business.
Previous winners of the Rising Star category have gone on to do great things and have also been noticed because of their win.
Here’s what one of last year’s Rising Star Award winners said:
“Attending the Woman Who awards was an amazing experience and, 2 years ago, I never thought I’d be standing in the same room as so many incredible women.
Winning a Rising Star Award blew me away and the experience has inspired me to keep on striving to be the best I can be every single day”

The Judges want to hear about your journey so far. They don’t want to read your UCAS submission, they want to know about the real you, your studies, your passion and your achievements to date. What makes you stand out? This isn’t all about Academics! Are you an artist, creative or have experience in media or technology? Have you travelled, won an award or raised a significant amount of money for a local charity? Please provide examples and use all the relevant space.
