Tickets include tea & coffee on arrival. The panel session will be followed by a delicious ‘pot luck’ light lunch prepared by some of the panellists and other female food producers and served with wine.
In the spirit of the ‘pot luck’ lunch, attendees are also encouraged to bring along some food they would like to share – but this is totally optional!

Being a members only space, for some this will be a rare opportunity to experience the AllBright Collective. The Collective provides a unique environment for women to connect, create and collaborate. Guests of this event are welcome to tour this beautiful and carefully designed space.

Proceeds from this event will support Smart Works

Smart Works is a UK charity that provides high quality interview clothes and interview training to unemployed women in need. They harness the power of clothes and confidence to allow a woman to be her best at a crucial moment in her life, giving her the confidence, the self-belief and the practical tools required to succeed at interview and transform her life.
