International Women’s Day event will support Prevent Breast Cancer

An International Women’s Day event is being held as part of the Paint Altrincham Pink initiative.

Altrincham BID and Capstone Financial will host the ‘Stringer Together – Sharing Success’ event in support of the Prevent Breast Cancer charity.

The event will take place from 1-5pm on Friday, March 8, at Prana on Ashley Road in Altrincham.

The aim is to celebrate the achievements and contributions of women from diverse fields. Attendees can look forward to an inspiring lineup of speakers from the worlds of business as well as health, and wellbeing, offering valuable insights and empowering stories.

Guest speakers include Rimi Thapar (CEO at Love Raw), Kate Hulley, (owner pf Belmont Packaging), Sarah Fogg, (founder of Brows by Sarah) and many more.

There will also be a fashion show which will showcase the latest collections from some of
Altrincham’s independent boutiques.

Sarah Healey of Capstone Financial said, “We are incredibly excited to be working with Altrincham BID on this event. Having the opportunity to bring together some brilliant women in business and have them share their stories of success and also challenges faced, will hopefully inspire many.

“Prana is a great venue to host this, with up to 80 people attending for an afternoon to inspire and celebrate the achievements of the women around us and contribute to a great cause”.

Prevent Breast Cancer is the only UK charity committed solely to predicting and preventing breast cancer and is based locally at the Nightingale Centre at Wythenshawe Hospital.

Mandy White, Altrincham’s BID manager added, “Altrincham’s businesses show huge support each year for Paint Altrincham Pink, and we would encourage the community to come and support this great cause.”
