Anyone been to Downing Street?
I ask because I have an invitation and would like to know what to expect. I'd urge anyone who thinks twice about entering an award to just go for it. I've been short-listed for the national Mother@Work Awards 2008 and will be attending the awards ceremony at Downing Street in June. Running a business can be a challenge at times and when you set up on your own it can be quite lonely. This type of recognition really does show that you can achieve anything you focus on.

I've applied for/entered about four awards over the years and only been shortlisted once about four years ago.
I sort of can't be bothered now because I always think "What's the point, my business clearly isn't impressive enough" :-))
Defeatist attitude I know!
Good luck at Downing Street!
Congratulations! Which category have you been nominated in? My mum nominated me for the Exceptional Working Mother category and I'm on the shortlist too ..... I'm absolutely terrified!!
Just wear something smart and comfortable. That's what my mother wore when she collected her MBE from Prince Charles - and she was the only female recipient not wearing a hat.
Congratulations, though. Let us know how you get on. You don't have to curtsy to the PM - thank goodness.
