Accepting my One Dance UK Award back in 2022 I was full of pride for the acknowledgement of amplifying the issues of parenting in dance. As I recall it was on the same day as Pregnant Then Screwed March of the Mummies - giving me a chance to ‘connect the dots’ in my acceptance speech.

I am delighted to announce that I will be a judge for the One Dance UK Awards this year, which celebrate the impact the dance community is having right across the country.

Nominations for the One Dance UK Awards will be closing soon on Thursday 8th October!

These awards spotlight the individuals who inspire, innovate, and create change, from dedicated teachers and community artists to behind-the-scenes champions and visionary leaders.

Whether it’s a dance teacher inspiring students, a project connecting communities through movement, a healthcare professional advancing dancer wellbeing, or an artist breaking new ground in digital performance, if you know an exceptional individual, don't miss your chance to nominate them and give them the recognition they deserve.
