Local businesswoman shortlisted in first of its kind awards

Managing Director of Standish based McGinty Demack, Karen Richardson, has been shortlisted for the inaugural English Women’s Awards 2018 – North.

Shortlisted in the category of Services to Accounting and Finance, Karen was nominated by people from around the North-West based on her forward-thinking approach.

Held on 19 March at the Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel, the English Women’s Awards – North acknowledge and celebrate the achievements of women including female entrepreneurs, civil servants, charity founders amongst other professionals in the North of England, whose hard work, talent and commitment is often under-represented.

The awards also provide an opportunity and platform for women to inspire others, particularly younger women, as each nominee will have their own story to tell and advice to give.

Karen said: “I’m delighted to have been shortlisted for the Services to Accounting and Finance award, it means so much that people across the North-West appreciate the work we do at McGinty Demack.

“It would be lovely to win the award, but simply being shortlisted in an immense honour.

“I hope the awards inspire women across the country to get involved in business, it’s tough but also tremendously rewarding.”
