WATCH NOW ON DEMAND: Celebrating Diversity Photography Competition Virtual Awards Ceremony

On 7th September Her Excellency Kara Owen, British High Commissioner, unveiled the winning entries of last year's 4th Annual Celebrating Diversity Photography Competition.

In a special virtual ceremony organised with AsiaWorks due to COVID-19 constraints, Her Excellency awarded the Most Popular, 3rd Prize, 2nd Prize and 1st Prize winners who will each win a cash prize sponsored by Newcastle University, represented by Professor Matt Bentley, CEO & Dean of the University in Singapore.

Hosting the event, Daisy Radford, Head of Operations and Delivery for BAE Systems, APAC D&I lead and Chamber committee member, gave an overview of the competition and the importance of continuing these important discussions despite the pandemic. Daisy then introduced Andrew Ashman, Head of Loan Syndicate at Barclays and Co-Chair of BritCham's Diversity & Inclusion committee. Barclays has been the Official D&I Partner of the Chamber for several years and continue to support our activities in this area.

Congratulations to all of the finalists, whose photographs were featured in this year's Celebrating Diversity desktop calendar, copies of which are available from the Chamber office by request. We would like to take this moment to thank our partners and the High Commission team, and all those who entered. We received 165 entries to shortlist and for the High Commissioner to subsequently judge for the winners. This competition is a true community outreach activity, with participation from schools throughout Singapore, both MOE and international, our members and keen photographers.

Thank you all for taking the time to consider the importance of diversity, equality and inclusion.
