About this Event

You’re Invited to the 5th Annual Olive Morris Awards & Luncheon

Theme: Women in the Business of Liberation

Get ready for a powerful, vibrant, and deeply inspiring day as we celebrate five years of honouring the bold, visionary Black women building stronger communities across the UK.

ALL ALLIES ARE WELCOME

This year’s theme, "Women in the Business of Liberation," highlights the fierce and transformative work of Black women in community development—those driving positive change, grassroots progress, and collective care.

At the heart of the Olive Morris Awards is a commitment to uplift and spotlight Black women leaders who are not just doing the work, but doing it for the people. Inspired by the revolutionary legacy of Olive Morris and the freedom-fighting women who continue in her footsteps, we honour those who challenge systems, build networks of support, and hold space for joy, justice, and liberation.

💥 What to Expect This Year:

🎖️ Award Ceremony
Celebrating 5 phenomenal women chosen by communities across the UK, whose work embodies radical love, resilience, and community power.

🎤 Power Panel: Roundtable on Global Liberation
This year’s focus expands Olive’s framework to the global stage, examining how struggles abroad are linked to our own, and how solidarity can be a tool for survival and transformation.

Featuring:

Marian Faye (The Gambia) – fighting human and sex trafficking
Asil Sidahmed (Sudan) – highlighting the work of women sustaining families amid conflict
The Collective (U.K.)– a dynamic group of Muslim women abolitionists documenting the intersections of Islamophobia, anti-Blackness, colonialism, and resistance

🍽️ Luncheon + Joyful Gathering
Enjoy delicious food, a mini short film fest, games, prizes, and surprises that will nourish your spirit and spark new connections.
