Women of the year luncheon
Dear all,
I am delighted to invite you, and your network members in the Midlands Region, to the prestigious Women of the Year Luncheon & Awards on Friday 5th October 2007 at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole.
The event will include a drinks reception, luxury stalls, a sumptuous three-course lunch, Rosemary Conley as our keynote speaker, a fashion show presented by Selfridges Birmingham - and of course the Award Ceremony. We aim to net £30,000 for the charity Vitalise, which will provide a staggering 85 week-long breaks for disabled people and carers.
This is a particularly exciting year to attend as it will be the Luncheon's 25th anniversary, so as well as it being a very high-profile event, we will be pulling out all the stops to make it a really spectacular and memorable day. Our key sponsors include SCC, John Lewis, Browne Jacobson, Bravissimo, Jaguar, Business Link, Secantor and Tirebuck Recruitment. The event provides guests with a fantastic networking opportunity – we are expecting up to 800 ABC1 Midlands-based businesswomen.
To buy tickets, or to find out more about this unique event, please visit www.womenoftheyear.org.uk – you can download ticket booking forms there. If you would like to nominate any friends, colleagues or contacts for the prestigious Businesswoman of the Year Award, you can download a nomination form from the Awards section of the website. Absolute modesty is often a characteristic of highly successful women, and we cannot expect suitable candidates to select themselves; so if you know anyone deserving of recognition in the business arena, please do not hesitate to nominate them asap!
For further details, you can contact me on my direct line (020) 7017 3437 or at events@vitalise.org.uk. Meanwhile, I’d be grateful if you could circulate this email to your members.
We hope to see you in October!
Best wishes,
Sophie Cox
