Women from across Torbay celebrated International Women’s Day by coming together to celebrate the incredible achievements of women at an event organised by TDA. Held at the Hampton by Hilton, the event was sponsored by South Devon College, Emerson Wills, Poppy Jakes and Devon Women in Business.
The day also raised over £500 for the Ladies Lounge in Torquay, supported by an amazing range of local businesses who provided a range of prizes from business to wellbeing.
International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marked a call to action for accelerating women’s equality.
Over 70 women, from diverse backgrounds, came together to share their stories and experiences, celebrating the power, achievements, and resilience of women in Torbay. Delegates participated in engaging discussions, thought-provoking talks and gained valuable insights from a panel of inspiring speakers including Jess Wiggins, Founder of Impact Coaching, Lorraine Arnold, award-winning local businesswoman and Alison Hernandez, Police and Crime Commissioner for Devon and Cornwall.
The event connected like-minded individuals, forged new connections and allowed attendees to explore the opportunity for collaboration and growth. One attendee described the event as “a day filled with positivity, inspiration, empowerment and networking.”
