• Gone on to better their lives, even when everyone else was saying they would fail;
• Fought for what is right and achieved what she set out to do;

In essence, the award is to recognise ordinary women who do extraordinary things be it in their home and with their family, in the area they live in, in the work that they do. The awards will be open to women aged 18 who live and/or work in the UK so enter now.
