The New Faces Awards is an event dedicated to the myriad of achievements from everyday women, whilst recognising their positive contributions to our community. The award is also a celebration of female leadership, honouring inspirational women with an established track record of organisational and personal success. The NFAs aim to shine a light on the opportunities to foster strength through adversity, build new alliances, and uplift women.
