Women's Network
"As women, we are the catalysts of a cultural movement towards social good. Our voices, questions, and choices are collectively setting the course for the world in which we live and love." (The Good Trade).
The Women’s Network aims to improve the working lives of everyone at GOSH. We believe equality benefits everyone.
Our mission is to be group that challenges the status quo, uniting and celebrating those who identify as women to embrace their multiple and intersectional identities.
The Women's Network is for all women, including non-binary/femme identities, irrespective of sex assigned at birth, as well as allies.
