Winning this year's Athena Award is giving Charlotte Loaring a chance to represent the family, friends and associates who have supported her throughout her life.
"I'm just the representative of an entire team of inspiring people who have helped me along life's path," said Loaring. "It's truly an honour and as motivated by this as I am personally, I'm so proud there's an organization in Windsor which takes the time to recognize people with an award such as this."
Loaring, owner of the Loaring Physiotherapy and Health Centre, will receive her award Wednesday during the annual Windsor Regional Chamber of Commerce business excellence awards.
"It's a huge honour and does nothing but motivate me to continue what I'm doing," said Loaring, who was nominated by Mary Brannagan, a fellow physiotherapist who works at her clinic.
"When I look at the list of previous winners, many of them are people who have inspired me throughout my business and personal life. It's very special and it has left me speechless, which is pretty rare."
Professionally, Loaring presides over a clinic which opened in 2005 with just three employees in a 3,000-square-foot building. It now boasts 14 employees and has expanded to 5,400 square feet.
It has the largest multi-disciplinary professional rehabilitation team under one roof in the area and is recognized as a designated service provider for national, Olympic and paralympic athletes.
