Denise Burns, Corporate Assurance Manager, said, “Helen is the epitome of a Diversity Champion, not only for Radius and the tenants and customers we serve, but more broadly in her dedication to fairness and raising awareness of the importance of equality and diversity. We are thrilled that she has been recognised with a nomination for this prestigious award and wish here every success for the awards evening.”

The awards, in their second year of running, will take place on 23rd March at the Titanic Museum, Belfast.
