“I have no hesitation in recommending Cynthia Toussaint for the Woman of the Year Award. I have known her for a number of years and have been constantly inspired by her enthusiasm, her dedication and her never-ending determination to overcome her own substantial problems and to use that experience to help countless others.

In founding For Grace, Cynthia has enabled thousands of others to look at their own lives and problems in a totally different way. Often in pain that would have immobilised most of us, she has continued to strive to use every possible minute of her day to help others. Through her determination and kindness and humour and music, she has demonstrated that one person can truly make a difference. I urge you to consider Cynthia for this prestigious award.”
