Lee Chambers, the Preston based psychologist and founder of Essentialise Workplace Wellbeing has been nominated for the Entrepreneur of Excellence Award at The National Diversity Awards 2021.

The Breathtaking Liverpool Anglican Cathedral will play host to this year’s awards, to be held on 4th February 2022. Britain’s most inspirational and selfless people will come together to honour the rich tapestry of our nation, recognising individuals and groups from grassroots communities.

The prestigious black-tie event recognises nominees in their respective fields of diversity including age, disability, gender, race, faith, religion and sexual orientation.

Lee Chambers, psychologist and founder of Essentialise, said: “It’s an honour to be nominated for what is such a prestigious award, and I feel privileged to be alongside so many other individuals making a positive impact. With Essentialise working at the intersection of wellbeing and diversity, inclusion and equity, this is a validation of just how important social impact and organisation cultures are.”

ITV News will be working in association with The National Diversity Awards to highlight role models and community organisations on regional and national news channels.

Rachel Corp, Acting Editor, ITV News said; “We are pleased that ITV News will once again be supporting the National Diversity Awards. ITV News remains committed to telling the stories of those, who through their work and dedication to helping others has made a difference; enhancing equality, diversity and inclusion in our society.”

The UK’s largest diversity awards have attracted a growing list of supporters including Adam Hills, Graham Norton and Katie Piper. Sir Lenny Henry CBE, last year’s winner of the Celebrity of the Year gong said; “Diversity to me means involving everybody without any discrimination; it means having integrated groups in society, it means fairness and total inclusion and that’s what the National Diversity Awards are about. Congratulations to everyone who has been nominated, you’re all doing a fantastic job, rock on!”

The National Diversity Awards receives over 60,000 nominations and votes annually. Founder & CEO Paul Sesay said, “As we enter our 10th awards season, The National Diversity Awards prepare to welcome a host of outstanding role models and charities to our family. We look to those who represent progress, spirit and resilience, and I cannot wait to learn about the wonderful work being carried out this year”.

Nominations are now open and close June 4th 2021 - so don’t miss out on your chance to get involved!

Shortlisted nominees will be announced shortly after this date.
