International Women’s Day 2025
On 12th March 2025, Rights & Equality Sandwell proudly hosted Rise & Thrive – Honouring Women’s Voices, a special event celebrating International Women’s Day.
This event brought together inspirational women from Sandwell to share their journeys, wisdom, and lived experiences. Through powerful storytelling, engaging discussions, and a sense of unity, we created a space where women’s voices were truly heard and celebrated.
The event featured:
✨ Guest speakers, including The Worshipful the Mayor of Sandwell, Councillor Syeda Khatun MBE.
✨ Powerful video testimonials, where women shared the advice they would give to their younger selves.
✨ Community conversations, fostering empowerment, leadership, and resilience.
✨ A shared Iftar, symbolizing inclusivity and togetherness.
💜 This was more than a celebration—it was a movement to amplify women’s voices, create meaningful connections, and inspire change.
