Through Diana’s experience and involvement in projects such as the “UK Economic Blueprint for Women” aimed at creating opportunities for small and medium businesses by redefining procurement routes; a key aim of this project will be to support the development of women who are supplying skills and services to tier 2 businesses within the construction industry.
