Six worthy winners of this year's Daily Mail's Inspirational Women Awards were last night honoured at a glittering ceremony.
Their heroics include campaigning for better maternal healthcare for black women, fighting for healthier prison meals, and advocating for girls' right to education.
The Mail's awards, held in partnership with Marks and Spencer and in support of The WOW Foundation (Women of the World), attracted hundreds of entries.
Our judges decided on six winners, who were presented their trophies at London's Grosvenor House by Rishi Sunak's wife, Akshata Murty, broadcaster Angela Rippon, campaigner Anna Whitehouse and Mail columnist Sarah Vine. ITV newsreader Nina Hossain hosted the ceremony.

Last month, they were also invited to Buckingham Palace by The WOW Foundation (Women of the World), which promotes gender equality, where they met its president, the Queen
Among the winners were maternal health campaigners Tinuke Awe and Clotilde Abe. The pair formed the organisation Five X More in 2019, after learning that black women were five times more likely to die during pregnancy and childbirth in the UK than white women.
Today, that has reduced to four times more. Carla Cressy started The Endometriosis Foundation last year, determined to ensure others will be spared her own experience of the gynaecological condition.
Claire Lilly was honoured for the work she does helping to trace veterans who go missing and are often suicidal. Muzoon Almellehan, who fled Syria in 2011 and stayed in a refugee camp in Jordan, is fighting for the rights of children to education.
Lucy Vincent founded the charity Food Behind Bars in 2016 and designs healthy, cost-efficient prison menus.
