Fabulous Women
Yesterday, I joined Fabulous Women at a breakfast event in Oxshott. Fabulous Women is an organisation set up by the brilliant Paulette Schwartz (pictured to my left - with the dynamic Leonie Wright on my right). It is a not-for-profit organisation. On their website, here, they list their three main aims as:
2. To find practical ways to support women in business, especially small business. We are especially focused on finding ways to promote these businesses in win-win ways.
3. To raise funds for the causes women care about by organising and hosting fund raising events.
It was a terrific local event, with a very impressive range of female talent, expertise and experience contributing. The group is also open to men - a number of whom were present - and was keen to engage on practical social issues that affect us all like childcare costs, business mentoring, support for start up businesses. I found the event really insightful, refreshing and a lot of fun.
