In celebration of International Women’s Day, shoe retailer Pavers has announced the ten finalists for the inaugural Pavers Community Champions Awards.
The finalists were selected from a pool of inspiring women nominated by the public at Pavers stores across the UK and Ireland.
Customers were invited to share their stories and nominate women who have made a meaningful difference in their communities, whether through their professional work, volunteer efforts, or local activism. The selection of these ten finalists highlights the incredible impact that women are having in communities nationwide.
Debbie Paver, Trustee of the Pavers Foundation, said:
“We’ve been so inspired by every single woman nominated for the Pavers Community Champions Awards. Each of these ten finalists has done amazing work in their communities, whether it’s through fundraising or going the extra mile to help those in need. We're honoured to celebrate with them on International Women’s Day.”
Among the finalist is Scarborough' Trish Kinsella.
Trish was nominated at Pavers’ Scarborough store for "donating to the Rainbow Centre for over 30 years". The Rainbow Centre offers support to vulnerable people in the local community. Trish also supports by listening and advising people in difficult situations. The nominator commented that "Trish is a wonderful person to be around and always has time for people."
The finalists will be invited to a celebratory event on International Women’s Day, 8th March, where the Pavers Community Champion of the Year will be announced. This year’s winner will receive the prestigious title, along with a year’s supply of Pavers shoes.
