On Friday 6th September we held our judging day for the 42nd Women of the Year Awards.
All this year’s finalists gathered at key Sponsors Freeths LLP in Manchester, who very kindly hosted this year’s judging day.
The day started with breakfast refreshments on arrival, before our team of carefully selected judges were split into groups to start the difficult task of interviewing all the finalists to find our winners for this years Business Woman of the Year Award, and the Freeths Woman with Edge Award.
Judging for the day was split across the two categories with each finalist taking part in a panel interview with the judges, then moving on to meet with our social media team for photographs and videos, before making their way home to anxiously await the results that will be revealed at this year’s event that takes place on Friday 11th October at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
