2023 Recognition Awards - Impact on Equality & Diversity - Joint winners
Congratulations to Julie Partridge and White Water Women, this year's joint recipients of the Impact on Equality & Diversity Award at the SCA Recognition Awards.
This award is for an individual or a group who have made a difference to make paddlesport more accessible to all, increasing opportunities for under-represented groups to participate.
We are honoured this year to have joint winners! The panel debated the nominees for this award for a long time and in the end decided to recognise two very deserving winners.
One of our joint winners is Julie Partridge, founding member of Cairngorms Pride Paddlers. In the words of one of her nominators Lara, Julie “sees something that could make a difference and gets on with making it happen.”
Congratulations to Julie, a very worthy winner! Julie is also one of our new
#shepaddles ambassadors for 2024.
The White Water Women group are our other joint winner. This group was also formed last year by a group of women who met and bonded at the Scottish Women’s Paddle Symposium. They have created and fostered a positive and supportive community of female white water paddlers.
Congratulations to Cara, Sarah, Christina, Betty, Anna, Jules & everyone else involved in this fantastic group!
