Katy Sneyd named as winner of community celebration – with over 70 women nominated by the people of Northwich
Barons Quay shopping centre is delighted to announce the winner of its search for the Inspirational Women of Northwich, a community-led campaign to celebrate extraordinary local women ahead of International Women’s Day and Mother’s Day.
Following an overwhelming response from the people of Northwich, with more than 70 nominations received, the worthy winner is Katy Sneyd, who was nominated not once, but twice by those who know her best.
A Friend, a Guide, a Community Heart
Katy was described by those who nominated her as a tireless support to the people around her, a mother to three daughters, a devoted friend, and a guiding presence in her community. Her nominations paint a portrait of a woman whose warmth, generosity and zest for life are simply unmissable.
Her friend Hayley said:
“She has become our support system with our youngest son, whom she adores. She was my husband’s support when I had major surgery. She’s been my absolute support and guidance through very recent times and over the last 16 years. Her friendship is immeasurable and so is her heart. Her zest for being at the heart of her community, life, fun and love is inspiring.”Her friend Lian added:
“Katy is everything you need and want in a friend. She is a wealth of knowledge, she is a guiding light in times of need and she is an inspiration to those around her – and she does all of this while raising 3 amazing daughters.”
Her Face on the Windows of Barons Quay
As her prize, Katy’s portrait will be painted on the windows of Barons Quay, joining a host of other inspirational women from the local area in a striking public display of community pride. The window artwork will also feature the names of every single woman who was nominated, a visible tribute to the incredible people who make Northwich the community it is.
The public are invited to visit Barons Quay this weekend to see the display and look out for the name of their own nominated women on the windows.
Notes from Barons Quay
Louise Gittins, Leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council
“We were absolutely overwhelmed by the response to our search for the inspirational women of Northwich. Reading through every single nomination reminded us just how many remarkable people are living and working in this community. Katy’s story, and the words of those who love her, is exactly what this campaign is about. We’re so proud to be celebrating her, and all of the incredible women who were nominated.”Russ Figgis, Centre Manager for Barons Quay, added:
“Cara, our artist (and inspirational woman in her own right), has created an amazing window display showing all the incredible women, including our wonderful winner Katy. We’re looking forward to seeing people’s photos of their names on display.”
