Last night we launched this year's Sue Ryder Yorkshire Women of Achievement Awards with a little get-together at Debenhams in Leeds.
Of course, there was wine and nibbles. But more importantly there was a real sense of excitement ahead of this year's event. Everyone who was there is really commited to making the 2012 event bigger and better than ever - and we cannot thank them enough for their support.
