Ninder Johal DL, CEO of the Nachural Group of Companies commented: “Very well done and well-
deserved award - Iwona’s story is of an immigrant who achieved against all the odds building a
a strong business that will continue to employ more people as it grows - a very well-deserved
accolade!”
William Milsom, Marketing and Public Relations Manager of PAB Languages, said:

These nominations not only reflect how our team upholds these values but demonstrates the guidance, vision, and leadership, of our founder. We are so proud of her well-deserved accomplishment and thank her for consistently inspiring our team!”
As well as being an inspirational entrepreneur, Iwona is also community spirited. She is a Director/Trustee of Centrepoint Outreach, a charitable organisation working with and for homeless
and vulnerable people. During the Covid pandemic, she offered the services of the PAB Languages team, free of charge, to ensure that key health messages were translated from English into foreign
languages to protect non-English speaking individuals and those for whom English is a second language. In March 2019, PAB launched Celebrating Cultural and Language Diversity campaign, which champions a better understanding of cross-cultural diversity and promotes a more inclusive culture through a range of activities, educational workshops, and community events.
PAB Team has developed FREE materials for local Councils, Police Services, children’s centres, and retail stores to support communication and cultural awareness, including Celebrating Cultural and Language Diversity campaign, FREE Translation cards and FREE International holiday and celebration cards.
