Celebrating International Women’s Day #Breakingthebias

Our first in-person networking event of 2022 to celebrate International Women’s Day 2022 was a great success and so lovely to see so many inspiring women attending.

In partnership with our tenants Social Enterprise Mark CIC we co-hosted this women-led networking event as we celebrated IWD at the Millfields Trust.  Our event was over subscribed and attended by women across the City from all different sectors.  We all enjoyed an inspiring and engaging presentation from Jenny Evans who works at YTKO, as part of their fully funded Outset programme, helping other start-ups and entrepreneurs succeed and follow their passions!

Jenny offered valuable advice of how to #breakthebias for women in business having experienced difficult situations herself throughout her time of running her own businesses. 

We felt very honoured to have the presence of the Lord Mayor, Councillor Terri Beer who presented gifts personally made by Jenny Evans; a pure silk cushion and notepad, as well as a free 1:1 Marketing Masterclass from the marketing Lead Sallie Ryan from Social Enterprise Mark.

The lucky winners were:  Louise from Go South West and Antionio, Rhizome.

Thank you to all who attended and made our first event of the year a great success.
