Since our inception in 2014, the core purpose of Franklin Women has been to provide practical support to women in their career journey through opportunities for networking, professional development and initiatives that drive cultural change.

In our 2020 Impact Report, we go beyond numbers to capture and celebrate the real impact of the many activities we have delivered in the past 5 years, through stories from the FW Community.

As a long term supporter of Franklin Women and our mission, we invite you to join our special guests for the launch of our 2020 Impact Report and a (COVID Safe) celebration of what we have achieved together.

Please enter your details below so we can manage guest lists to meet safety restrictions and catering. We hope to see you at the launch!
