The results of the "Women of the Year" awards were announced on Monday with five winners chosen for their "perseverance and courage in the face of some of the most serious issues facing women today".
The 60th anniversary of the ceremony, which has "recognised, celebrated and inspired women of all backgrounds" since its inception in 1955, took place at the InterContinental Hotel in Park Lane, London, and the winners were chosen by a judging panel which included the likes of comedian Sandi Toksvig and Independent on Sunday editor Lisa Markwell.
