Lioness Awards For Women LAFW 2019 - Finalists 

The Lioness Awards for Women Ceremony was set up to recognise individuals and organisations who have worked exceptionally hard and made an outstanding contribution in their personal growth and to the development of the community.

This is the second of our biennial award ceremony. Our mission is to celebrate, recognise, and stand alongside, honour and uplift women from all works of life, who overcame challenges, made a difference or contributed to society in whatever way.

 

The awards ceremony will be held on Saturday 28th September at the Hallmark Hotel in Croydon, starting at 6pm -11:30pm. Originally built in 1928 to serve the airport, the Hallmark Hotel London Croydon Aerodrome has a well-loved heritage in Surrey. It has a stunning lobby, stylish lounge bar and the Hallmark Grill offer plenty of places to relax and unwind.

The evening will be an excellent opportunity to meet a wide range of people from different backgrounds, but with a common ethic of hard work and determination. It will be delightful setting for networking, raising your own profile, celebrating success and a chance to highlight your own business.
