There is delight for a mum from Potters Bar who won a prestigious business award for a second year running.

Hayley Wikner, owner of Hawthorne Wills Ltd, picked up a silver award in the Best Consumer category at the Best Businesswomen Awards, held at Syon Park on October 11.

"I am absolutely delighted to receive this award," she said. 

"Customer service and satisfaction is really important to me, helping my customers navigate the tricky process of writing wills and powers of attorney, ensuring they are comfortable with their documents and understand the process every step of the way."

Hayley set up Hawthorne Wills Ltd in June 2020, after qualifying as a will writer with the Society of Will Writers in 2018.

The business is based in Potters Bar and offers wills, lasting powers of attorney and document storage.

The Best Businesswomen Awards was set up in 2015 to celebrate the outstanding achievements of women in business, particularly those who have founded and made a success of independent businesses that serve their local community.
