Celebrate everything that makes you a woman this week!

The Woman UP! team will be returning for the the 4th Woman Up! event. We are promised a jam packed event with 'delicious speakers and tasty topics' to help 'expand our minds and build solidarity.'

The event will be exploring, celebrating and honouring issues affecting different women, and hopes to encourage us to think about how we can live a little more 'radically inclusively'.

This event is for anyone interested in exploring the issues faced when negotiating the intricacies of womanhood. There is a line-up of speakers who will seek to 'uplift and enlighten' the audience with tales laced with survival, vulnerability, positivity and hope.

The organisers say: "The reasons for organising such an event are driven by our young women who continue to face issues and inequality due to their gender."  

"Furthermore, as women we are often unjust to ourselves. We carry shame and trauma, pressure and expectation about aspects of our own appearance and behaviour.

"The roles we ought to occupy are fuelled by capitalism, patriarchy and media rhetoric, systems that seek to leave us insecure, competitive and divided."

During the event there will be a Q&A session. This part of the event aims to provide a safe space to unpick issues.

This years panel will respond to questions about their lives and use their expertise to navigate others through issues.

Organisers pledge that "this one day event promises to leave a mark on your mind."

The event will be held at Tullie House on Saturday June 18 between 10am  and 5pm.

Tickets are now available here at a cost of £5 or FREE as organisers said they did not want cost to be a barrier of attending.
