FEMALE ENTREPRENEUR OF THE YEAR: Our Founder Jessica Gwaringa honoured at the NOVI Awards 2024

Last Friday, Moonrise had the honour of attending the prestigious Novi Awards 2024 at The Londoner Hotel, right in the heart of London. It was an inspiring evening filled with recognition of remarkable leaders and innovators across various industries.

The highlight of the night for us was seeing our Founder and CEO, Jessica Gwaringa, take the stage to accept the award for Female Entrepreneur of the Year. This accolade is a testament to her unwavering dedication, exceptional leadership, and the transformative impact she has made in the care industry.

Jessica’s acceptance speech was both heartfelt and motivational. Reflecting on this milestone, she said:
“This award holds a special place in my heart, not only as a testament to the hard work and dedication I’ve invested in my journey but also as a source of renewed confidence and courage to reach even greater heights.”

For over a decade, Jessica has guided Moonrise with vision and determination, building a care agency that puts compassion and quality at the forefront of everything we do. Under her leadership, Moonrise has grown from a North East-based organisation into a nationally recognised and trusted name in care services, now expanding into Scotland.

The evening was not just about celebrating individual achievements; it was also a reminder of the power of resilience, innovation, and teamwork. The Moonrise team was privileged to accompany Jessica to the awards and to witness her success being recognised on such a prominent stage.

This award reflects the values we hold dear at Moonrise—dedication, empathy, and excellence. It is a moment of pride for the entire team and a stepping stone as we look to the future with renewed ambition.

We extend our deepest gratitude to the Novi Awards for hosting such a wonderful event at The Londoner Hotel, bringing together trailblazers from all walks of life. It was an evening to remember, and we are inspired to continue striving for excellence in the care sector.

Congratulations to Jessica and to all the other winners and nominees who are making a difference in their respective fields!
