About this Event
Purple on. Trainers ready. Let’s give to gain!
This International Women’s Day, we’re hosting a celebrating women past, present and powering things forward in Birmingham.
We’ll be setting off from HQ, The Compound in the Jewellery Quarter for a guided 5km run around the area, spotlighting inspirational Brummie women from history to today.
Expect a celebration in motion: powerful stories, local pride and a reminder of just how far women have come… and how far we’re still going.
This year’s #IWD theme is Give to Gain 💜
So we’re inviting female founders and business owners to come along, share what they do, showcase their products or services, and connect with a community that loves supporting local women.
After the run, we’ll cool down properly and then keep things social.
After the run, we’ll return to The Compound for a relaxed social.
Food, drinks and the chance to browse and connect with local female founders who’ll be showcasing their products and services.
