A Sutton businesswoman and mum has won her fourth national business award in under a year at 26 years old.

Hannah Drury, operations director at Caremark Sutton in Lind Road, was named ‘Young Woman in Franchising of the Year’.

She was awarded the title at the annual NatWest ‘Encouraging Women into Franchising’ (EWIF) awards at the Grand Connaught Roms, in Covent Garden, on May 14.

Ms Drury said: “It felt wonderful to have been recognised for my hard work and it was very humbling to have been singled out in a room full of successful women.

“I was over the moon to have been shortlisted, let alone win the award, in a category with such inspirational businesswomen.”

The mum-of-two took over at Caremark Sutton, which provides domiciliary care for adults and children in Sutton, in late 2015.

She also won the ‘Young Franchisee of the Year’ award at the British Franchisee Association Awards, last July, alongside the ‘Franchisee of the Year’ honour overall.

It was five months later, in December, that she won 'Franchisee of the Year' for Caremark Sutton at the 2017 Startups Awards which was founded in 2013.

Ms Drury added: “I keep myself busy because I love what I do and I find it incredibly rewarding to be able to give back to the organisations who are so deserving of our support.”
