Maggie Alphonsi MBE to headline FT Adviser's Diversity In Finance Awards

International rugby legend Maggie Alphonsi MBE is lined up to entertain guests at the FT Adviser Diversity In Finance Awards 2024.

A leading light in women's rugby, she represented her country an impressive 74 times, scored 28 tries, won a World Cup and helped England win a record breaking seven consecutive Six Nations crowns.

Her career off-pitch has been just as impressive, as a spokesperson for women's rugby, a TV commentator and charity advocate.

She was involved in ITV's 'Britain Get Talking' campaign, which is a mental wellness campaign to help families communicate better to help children build better resilience and wellbeing. 

Alphonsi also represents charities such as Sporting Equals, as well as SKRUM, which aims to give the youth of Africa hope through rugby.

The Awards, supported by the Personal Finance Society, showcase the work financial services companies and professionals are doing to improve diversity, equity and inclusion in their company, their community and for their clients.

Winners will be announced on June 20, 2024 at The Biltmore Mayfair in London.
