BritMums at the Tesco Mum of the Year Awards

There was a red carpet, a scrum of photographers, celebrities like host Fiona Phillips, gymnast Louis Smith, Liberty X singer Michelle Heaton, Gareth Gates, and a roomful of gorgeous and accompished women. The Tesco Mum of the Year Awards was a glittering affair at the Savoy in London and BritMums was not just among the guests. We were pleased to be a judge for the Tesco Mum of the Year Awards, along with Cherry Healey, Denise Lewis, Emma Forbes and Cancer Research UK fundraising director Frances Milner.

After Champagne in a reception room, we sat down at a table with @Jax2000, @RosieScribble, @MinistryofMum, @JHowze, @Mumazine, and @mummyblogger and heard the amazing stories of the women honoured.

You can watch their moving stories on Mother’s Day Sunday 10 March, on Channel 5 when #TescoMumofTheYear Awards airs at 12 noon. See a preview below and tune in to see it all.
