2014 Women of the Year Awards
The 2014 Women of the Year Awards were presented on 7 March 2014 (the eve of International Women's Day) at Parliament House. These Awards recognise the many achievements of women across NSW.
In 2014, the Awards included four prestigious categories: the Premier's Award for Woman of the Year, Harvey Norman's Young Woman of the Year Award, A.H. Beard's Community Hero Award and Local Women of the Year.
239 nominations were received from across NSW highlighting the outstanding achievements and contributions that women are making in our state. The judging panel had a very difficult job in selecting finalists with so many excellent nominees.
For the first time, we introduced a new category - the Young Woman of the Year Award. This award acknowledges the important role young women have in our communities and is proudly sponsored by our partner, Harvey Norman.
