Vicar wins Woman of the Year Award

From the Leicester Diocese website:
Revd Gill Jackson, Director of Social Responsibility for the Diocese of Leicester has won Leicestershire's Woman of the Year award. The ‘Women of Achievement’ Award celebrates the achievements of women from all walks of life.

At a glittering awards ceremony at Walker’s Stadium, Revd Gill Jackson was named Leicester Woman of the Year 2007, after impressing judges with her work with asylum seekers in Leicester.

We're glad to be able to have supported the work among Asylum Seekers this year and pass our congratulations onto Gill.
