Financial Empowerment For Women Workshop

We work on how you might go about sorting things out and planning for your future (financially). It’s really designed to empower women to feel confident (and not stressed) about money!

This workshop is being held on the 16th November, from 8.45am to 2.45pm at Pollinators on Marine Tce.
