MD of Heald Shortlisted in Natwest Everywoman Awards

Debbie Heald, Managing Director of Heald Ltd, has been shortlisted in the NatWest everywoman Awards, the UK’s most prestigious event celebrating the achievements of women in business.

Debbie, who is a finalist in The Hera Award, has been recognised as an inspirational woman running a business which has been trading for ten years or more.

Debbie will join 22 other successful, female entrepreneurs at the NatWest everywoman Awards, which are set to take place on Wednesday 7^th of December at The Dorchester, London. In its fourteenth year, the NatWest everywoman Awards is set to be a glamourous afternoon of celebration for all in attendance.

This is not the first time Debbie has paved the way for future business women, only earlier this year she was awarded International Business of the Year at The Forward Ladies Women in Business Awards in the Yorkshire, North East and Scotland Regional finals.

Speaking about the finalists, NatWest everywoman Awards Co-founder Maxine Benson MBE commented:

“The ambition, success and humility of our finalists make them all strong, accessible role models for other women and girls considering starting their own business. Gender has never been a barrier to great ideas or initiatives and this year’s finalists bear that out.  We live in one of the best countries for entrepreneurship, and there is no better place for an enterprise to flourish, as our finalists prove. We wish them continued success and good luck!”

The awards were judged by 19 of the country’s most successful businesswomen including Chrissie Rucker MBE, Cath Kidston MBE, Julia Hands MBE, Amanda Wakeley OBE and Rosaleen Blair.  The event will be attended by over 300 leading figures from business, politics, the media and the City.
