What is an Assist Goodwill Ambassador?

This is an annual Ambassador role to recognise one remarkable business or professional woman from the Tees Valley.

Our AGA is an advocate that represents Assist and our community. Their role focuses on our three key strategies with involvement in particular campaigns close to our heart. They work closely with the decision makers of Assist.

To recognise and celebrate the achievements of our Assist Goodwill Ambassador's, each year we plant a tree in our Sisterwood which is located at Stewart Park, Middlesbrough. We also open a record in Teesside Archives for them. Our Goodwill Ambassadors are written and planted in history.

FAQ's

We encourage women across the Tees Valley to nominate themselves or a woman you may know that is working hard, quietly making an impact in their community, or is highly successful in their career and making a difference.

Should they be given the recognition of their peers? We are looking for someone who will have a positive impact on the future direction of Assist Women’s Network.
