International Women's Day Event: A Focus on Domestic Abuse with Woman's Trust

Thank you to all who came to our event on 7th March 2023 at The Royal Institution to celebrate International Women's day. We have received some wonderful feedback about the night. Thank you to Jessica Ramudo (Woman's Trust), Lesley Sackey (Fight Forward) and Danielle Bridge (ABC Life Support and Black Minds Matter) for their empowering and uplifting speeches, sharing their stories and addressing the sensitive subject of domestic abuse. What a joy to be in a room surrounded by so many strong and inspiring women. At this event we also officially launched our new charity partnership with Woman's Trust and we’re delighted to have raised over £450 for them, thanks to the generous contributions from our attendees. We are looking forward to sharing more in the near future about how you can further support them in other ways.

CWN Supper Club in Collaboration with The Conduit 

CWN's Supper Club in collaboration with The Conduit in February 2023 was a wonderful event with CWN members and The Conduit Club Members.  It was focussed around a discussion on "Health: we all have it so why don't we talk about it?"  What a fantastic way to network with members of the Conduit Cub and learn some valuable insights.  Attendees explored the stigma of talking about health and the opportunities that might arise in and out of the workplace if we tackle this taboo. 

The event was be hosted by Charlotte Wiseman with speakers, Yvette Forrester, President of City Women Network and Janet Lyndsay, Wellbeing of Women.
