Celebrate International Women’s Day and the Power of Collaboration bringing together women from across Lancashire and the North West

Join us this International Women’s Day for an inspiring, welcoming and connection-led event bringing together women from across Lancashire and the North West’s food, drink, hospitality, marketing and creative industries.

This half-day celebration is designed around the #GiveToGain theme — creating space for women to share experiences, learn from one another, build meaningful relationships and leave feeling energised, supported and inspired.

Whether you’re running a business, growing a brand, building your career or exploring what’s next, this event is an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day and be part of something collective.

Fireside Chat – The Power of Storytelling
The event opens with Meena McDonald and Seema Dalvi, in conversation, exploring Seema’s journey, her background, and how she built her award-winning restaurant. Expect honest insight, real experiences and practical takeaways.

Panel Discussion – Women Growing Businesses in the North West
Moderated by Meena McDonald, this panel brings together inspiring women from across the region to share their journeys, challenges, and lessons learned:

Seema Dalvi, Founder, Dalvee Restaurant
Ann Farrell, Director, The Lancashire Mead Company
Sara Dewhurst, Founder, Lytham Gin
Adele Scott, Marketing Exec, Oato
Female-Founded Brand Showcase
Discover, sample and buy from an exciting selection of female-founded brands across food and drink.

Thoughtful Networking
Relaxed, welcoming networking designed to encourage genuine conversations and connections — not awkward pitching.

Closing Breathwork Session
We’ll finish with a short grounding breathwork session led by Nicola Iredale of APRANA, helping you leave feeling calm, centred and recharged.

You don’t need to be “established” or have everything figured out — if you’re curious, ambitious, and open to learning and connecting, you’ll feel at home here.

Come as you are. Leave inspired, connected and supported.
