All King’s women, past and present, are invited to join The King’s Women’s Network (KWN) to celebrate International Women’s Day.

Enjoy breakfast on Friday 8 March with new and old friends of the King's community as we commemorate International Women's Day, a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.

Hear from guest speaker Dympna Kennedy, founder of Creating Balance, offer a fresh perspective on family dynamics and early childhood education through personalised solutions. Her focus on nonverbal communication equips parents with skills to forge deeper connections with their children, ensuring they feel heard and valued.

Dympna is a King’s mum and a great supporter of the King’s Women’s Network. We are proud to have her contribution to the women’s leadership conversation at King's on International Women’s Day, 2024. She will be sharing her insights learned from her experience, research and passion to help our King’s women think further about juggling the family demands and thriving in our home environments.

$10 from every ticket purchased will be donated to support the Aminata Maternal Foundation, an Australian not-for-profit organisation that was established with the goal of ending infant and maternal mortality in Sierra Leone.

The organisation focuses on safe delivery and provides the best quality maternal health services, along with the creation of sustainable communities by educating women and giving them the right tools to empower themselves.

We look forward to seeing you there.
