We were absolutely thrilled to be invited to attend the Yorkshire Business Woman Awards 2025, a prestigious event held at the Leeds Marriott Hotel on Friday 7th March. Bringing together over 250 business professionals from across Yorkshire, the evening was a true celebration of women in business, filled with inspiration, entertainment, and recognition of incredible achievements.
The event, which coincided perfectly with International Women’s Day weekend, was an unforgettable experience. From the exciting awards ceremony to the fantastic raffle prizes and goodie bags, the evening was filled with positive energy and support for the remarkable women making a difference in their industries and communities.
Representing Bless at the event were our Founder & CEO, Julie Green, and Trustee & Wellbeing Coach, Beverley Williams. We were honoured to stand alongside so many incredible women, cheering on all the talented nominees and winners of the night.
A huge congratulations to all those who were nominated and took home awards on the night! We were especially delighted to celebrate the success of Maddie from Blossom Training, who won the prestigious Mandy Taylor MBE Award. Maddie has worked with Bless, delivering self-defence classes to our community, and we have seen firsthand the dedication and passion she puts into her work. Seeing her recognised for her hard work and impact was truly a joy!
Attending this event was an incredible opportunity to connect with like-minded women, share experiences, and celebrate the power of female entrepreneurship and leadership. We left feeling inspired, energised, and grateful to be part of such a supportive and empowering network.
A massive thank you to the Yorkshire Business Woman Awards for hosting such a fantastic evening—we can’t wait to see what 2026 brings!
