Thank you to our outgoing Chair!
15th March 2025 by Vix Brenninkmeijer
We celebrated Lady Louise Vaughan’s last event as Chair of Women of the Year with a fabulous evening featuring actor Juliet Stevenson in conversation with Leonie Mellinger held by our Alumnae Club.
Louise has been an extraordinary champion of our mission continuing the legacy of her grandmother with passion and commitment. Her tireless work ensures that Women of the Year remains a powerful celebration of remarkable women from all walks of life.
Leonie conducted an inspiring interview where Juliet shared insights into her successful career. Listening to her talk about her experiences with such honesty, depth and humour was an absolute privilege.
And with thanks as always to Susan Ball and RSM for hosting us so generously.
