Bereavement Support Charity Sue Ryder is urging the people of Buckinghamshire to nominate 'incredible' woman for their 14th Annual Southern Women of Achievement Awards.

The awards, which have been running since 2006, remain one of Sue Ryder’s biggest fundraisers of the year.

The nominations for the 2020 awards are open from today (November 7), and are sponsored by Invesco.

There are seven categories for the awards which are: community, business, sport, Innovation, mentor/coach of the year, public service, and the Robyn Jones courage award.

Nominations will be open for a full month and the successful nominees will be contacted by December 20.

“Celebrating the incredible achievements of so many amazing women across the region is a cause very close to our hearts and something we look forward to year on year, however, we need help to find our wonderful nominees!

“We were overwhelmed by support for the 2019 awards – especially from our brilliant volunteers and sponsors - and hope to drive just as much of a buzz around the 2020 event too.

“The awards are always such a fun and heart-warming event and we want to make the 2020 awards our biggest and most successful yet.”

Winners will be decided by a judging panel at an award ceremony at Phyllis Court in Henley on Thames in March.
