Inspiration in Action: Celebrating Nelly Adam and her well-deserved recognition

Every once in a while, we have the honour of celebrating someone whose work not only drives impact within our organisation but also uplifts communities across the nation. Today, we're proud to shine a light on our colleague Nelly Adam, Assistant Business Partner, who has been recognised with two prestigious honours at the Ethnic Minority Welsh Women Achievement Association (EMWWAA) Awards: the Social Humanitarian Award and the Rhodri Morgan Award.

These awards are a powerful recognition of Nelly’s unwavering commitment to racial justice and inclusion, all in pursuit of a Wales where there is zero tolerance for racism. Her work reflects a deep dedication to building a fairer, more compassionate society for all

“My mission is to bring communities together and make lasting policy changes to benefit future generations. I want to empower people to use their voice — and give a voice to those that remain unheard,” said Nelly.

The Social Humanitarian Award honours those making outstanding contributions to social justice and humanitarian causes. The Rhodri Morgan Award, named after the former First Minister of Wales, celebrates leadership in public service and civic engagement — qualities that Nelly exemplifies every day.

We are incredibly proud to have Nelly as part of our team. Her leadership, passion, and vision continue to inspire all of us — and her recognition is richly deserved.

Congratulations, Nelly!
