A council officer who does voluntary work supporting start-up businesses to mentor the borough’s young people has won an award.
Enterprise programme manager Deborah Millington began supporting the London Enterprise Adviser Network’s school careers programme in her spare time last year.
She works with Canary Wharf College to provide students with opportunities to meet employers and gain an insight into the world of work and the variety of careers available.
Her work has earned her the London Enterprise Adviser of the Year award.
Deborah said: “Supporting these young people fits well with my work and it’s an experience I’ve really enjoyed.
