All three of our female artists are passionate about promoting positive mental health, through their lyrics, speaking from stage and the initiatives they're involved in. We're so proud to have Miranda Arieh and No Fixed IDentity on stage along with Suzanna.

Could the Igniting Inspiration Awards become more exciting? Apart from the incredible people you'll meet and hear from on the night, @SuzannadeeMusic will also perform on the night. She has supported us right from the start, singing at our launch in 2016 and awards in 2018! pic.twitter.com/cXt2LOC39X

A great piece by @Nickala5 who is a judge in our Igniting Inspiration awards. "...for every £1 of private investment only 1p...goes to women led businesses and organisations." We know this situation. Thanks to our members who #PayItForward and help plug the investment gap. twitter.com/SteadyStateMcr…
