International Women's Day (March 8) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women's equality. International Women's Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the first IWD gathering in 1911 supported by over a million people. This year the theme is 'Embrace Equity' to create a fair and equal world for all.

To recognise IWD, WMS we will be hosting an event to showcase a number of speakers from WMS, NHS and NHS Charities to deliver a short presentation or update which feed into the sub strands and main theme of IWD, followed by a Q & A.

We would like to welcome as many people as possible to this event, but please do Register for the event here as there will be refreshments afterwards.
