To celebrate International Women’s Day 2023, we asked some of our team what they think their biggest achievements are both in their professional and personal lives.
In this exercise, we found it quite hard to take a step back and recognise our accomplishments, but we felt International Women’s Day was the perfect time to do this as it’s important to pat yourself on the back every once in a while and be proud of the things you have achieved!
