Championing the achievements of women in businesses across Bassetlaw, North Notts BID is set to support the North Notts Business Women Awards 2025 as headline sponsor alongside its guest of honour, His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant for Nottinghamshire.

This prestigious awards ceremony, organised by North Notts Business Connections, takes place on Friday 21 March at North Notts Arena in Worksop. The awards will recognise and celebrate the outstanding contributions of female entrepreneurs, business owners and employees to the local economy and community across 12 categories, through judged awards and public votes.

As headline sponsor, North Notts BID sponsors the Businesswoman of the Year Award, which will be presented by His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant for Nottinghamshire, Professor Veronica Pickering MBS HAC.

Sally Gillborn MBE, chief executive at North Notts BID, said: “The North Notts Business Women Awards is a phenomenal occasion to celebrate the dedication of the inspiring women that make vital contributions to business growth in Bassetlaw, from independent shops to household names.

“With an exciting evening ahead, we are proud to once again be supporting as headline sponsor of these coveted awards. The awards also enable us to showcase our district, the wonderful businesses and talented women that we have here, aligning with the key objectives within the BID’s business plan.

“We are tremendously excited that this year we will also be celebrating the district’s successes alongside the Lord-Lieutenant Professor Veronica Pickering, who has carved an illustrious career and is an inspirational figure for many women in Nottinghamshire and beyond.”

Lord-Lieutenant Professor Veronica Pickering MBS HAC said: “Bassetlaw is a place close to my heart, having lived and worked in the district previously. The area has an incredible breadth of talented women behind its diverse range of businesses. I am looking forward immensely to supporting North Notts BID in sharing our gratitude to the contributions these women have made over the past year.”
