Women in Rail has announced that the Women in Rail Awards 2024 will take place on the evening of Thursday 16 May 2024 at the historic Roundhouse in Camden.
Launched in 2018, the Women in Rail Awards aim to showcase and reward individuals and companies (large and small) who have made a significant contribution to improving gender balance, equality, diversity and inclusion in the UK railway industry.
The event is attended by a cross-section of the UK rail sector, including key stakeholders and decision-makers, infrastructure providers, operators, manufacturers, rolling stock companies, technical consultancy companies and suppliers, to name only a few.
Marie Daly, Chair of Women in Rail and Chief Customer & Culture Officer for Transport for Wales says, “I am excited to attend my first Women in Rail Awards as Chair of Women in Rail. The Awards are a staple of the rail events calendar, and as one of the charity’s flagship events, an opportunity for us to come together as a community and celebrate those who go the extra mile to improve EDI and gender balance across the sector.
“The event’s attendees continue to reflect the core visions and values of Women in Rail – and it is my hope that we all continue to work together to ensure a bright – and more diverse – future for generations to come.”
Nominations for the Women in Rail Awards 2024 will open Monday 23 October 2023, with a closing date of Friday 26 January 2024.
All members of the rail community are encouraged to nominate – and help demonstrate our industry’s commitment to supporting the Women in Rail agenda by celebrating those companies and individuals who work hard to improve gender balance, equality, diversity and inclusion in our sector in line with the objectives of the joint WR/RIA EDI Charter.
