AMF Meeting – Women in Industry – Special Guest Speaker, Rebecca Wilson

Emily Davison famously made headlines when she stepped in front of the King’s horse at the 1913 Epsom Derby – a powerful act that highlighted the determination of the Suffragette movement.

Join us for an inspiring morning as her relative, Rebecca explores her powerful legacy and its relevance to today’s manufacturing landscape. In a sector where only 26% of the UK workforce are women, this event serves as a reminder of the ongoing importance of advocacy, inclusion and empowerment.

Agenda Highlights:

· Historical Insights: Family anecdotes and historical context from the suffragette movement.

· Gender Inclusion in Manufacturing: Addressing the gap in female representation in manufacturing and what can be done to inspire change.

· Q&A and Networking: Engage directly with Rebecca Wilson and like-minded women from our industry.

This event, proudly sponsored by Truenorth, aims to inspire women in industry to learn powerful lessons from the past, champion inclusivity and drive meaningful change within the manufacturing sector.

Secure your spot today for this truly special event.
