International Women's Day festival returns to Blackpool Sixth Form in March
The day-long event at Blackpool Sixth Form will bring together young women from Blackpool (England) Ireland, Scotland and Wales, with inspirational role models leading workshops and Q&A sessions.
The IWD event, organised by community organisation, The Washington Group, will focus on five key themes – ensuring young women’s voices can make a difference, women in sport, women protecting the Fylde coast climate, innovation and career opportunities in STEM, and women’s wellbeing and self-care.

This youth-led five year strategy will be the connection between what is positive about the assets in our community and where the gaps are, linking to the amazing projects and strategies across Blackpool Fylde and Wyre."
