The ALIBI Awards

I had the pleasure of celebrating women in small businesses at the ALIBI Awards in Penrith last month. Organised by Kylie King and emceed by the dynamic Olympic gold medallist beach volleyballer Kerri Pottharst, it was an evening where women encouraged and inspired each other. I don't think it was a coincidence that I was asked to present the golden entrepreneur of the year award—that's for someone over 60—and that went to Sue Mitchell. We also send big congratulations to Shelley Cootes from Penrith's Narrow Escape Rooms, Jess Chalk, Lynda MacCallum, Liesl Perryman, Jane Tweedy, Lisa Brownlie, Ebony Lowry, Melanie Cage, Sarah Knight, Teresa Tidball from Tidball Accountancy, Bianca Moore, Anna Simms from The Colour Blue Hairdressing, Monika Rodger, Megan Patterson, Alice Bullivant, Chantal Gerardy, Abbey Shepherd, Amee Dennis, Rach Mac, Fiona Harrison and ALIBI Business Lady of the Year Antoinette Stonham from All About Style. Congratulations to you all.
