Diversity Awards – Nominations close 19th May
We are now calling for nominations of the boards and board champions in your network who are leading diversity on boards. I’ve attached the Nomination Pack. You can read Dr Nicky Howe’s latest blog post about the awards here or the award details here. We’ve kept the nomination form as simple as possible.
It would be wonderful if every Community Partner and NFP could nominate themselves or someone else they would like to recognise.
All nominations are entered online here. Please share this with your networks and get nominating!

You will also witness the first winners of the Diversity Awards! Please join us so we can thank and recognise you for your contribution to the program.
