Women Supporting Women 2026

About the Event

After raising more than $154,000 across two years, Women Supporting Women returns in 2026 to create even greater impact for women and families in our community.

Set within the elegant surrounds of Hazel Kitchen & Bar at Hazelhurst Arts Centre, this annual gathering has become one of the Sutherland Shire’s most anticipated professional events. Designed for women in business and leadership, the evening offers a refined balance of connection, inspiration and purposeful contribution. In 2025 alone, more than 220 women joined us. This year, we’re expanding to welcome 220+ guests, creating even greater opportunity for meaningful networking while raising vital funds for a cause that matters deeply to our community.

Together, we proudly support The Family Co., whose essential services provide safety, advocacy and hope to women and children rebuilding their lives after domestic and family violence.

What to Expect

• A delicious selection of handcrafted canapés and drinks curated by Hazel Kitchen & Bar

• A thoughtfully curated goodie bag

• Live auction, silent auction and raffle

• The opportunity to connect with 220+ professional and like-minded women

More than a networking event, this evening brings together professional women who believe in connection, collaboration and collective impact, within a stylish and welcoming setting. All proceeds from the event, including auction funds, will be donated to The Family Co., supporting families escaping domestic violence and rebuilding their lives.

We are delighted to welcome back Leona Bennett and Sarah Lamb of Southern Waters Legal as your hosts for the evening, guiding us through inspiring conversations, meaningful connections and memorable moments.
