Steel Magnolia Award
Each year in March, Lifeline Newcastle & Hunter hosts an award that recognises a local woman who has overcome personal adversity and hardship and given something back to her local community. The award is called the Steel Magnolia and is given to women of great courage, vision and strength.
Now in its 6th year, the Steel Magnolia Award has become an established and prestigious event in our community
The Steel Magnolia Award is a significant event for women as it is celebrated on or near International Women’s Day. It is a significant event for Lifeline Newcastle & Hunter as we are able to raise much needed funds to support our crisis telephone counselling service.
We would like to acknowledge the generous and on-going support of the ResCo Services as the event's Major Sponsor.
