For International Women’s Day 2026 and beyond, let’s #GivetoGain .
The campaign emphasises the power of reciprocity and support. When people, organisations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase. Giving is not a subtraction, it’s intentional multiplication. When women thrive, we all rise.
Join us for our International Women’s Day lunch this March.
The event will feature three speakers whose careers have taken distinct paths:
– Linden Kemkaran, Leader of Kent County Council. Linden’s diverse career includes work at BBC News, property development and communications.
– Two speakers from FM Conway, an infrastructure services provider delivering vital services across transportation, the built environment and open spaces. The speakers will share their experiences of working as women in the construction industry.
– Renée Imafidon, an award-winning creative entrepreneur, community builder and social impact leader. Renée is co-founder of To My Sisters, one of the fastest-growing women’s development communities, and founder of Optimise Me, a personal growth newsletter. Her background includes impact investment, social entrepreneurship and community building.
This event will be raising funds for the Mayor’s chosen charities:
Citizens Advice in North & West Kent and Sevenoaks Area Youth Trust (SAYT)
