Island Women Event
Island Women: Celebrating the amazing and inspirational women of the Isle of Wight
Wednesday 11 March | 7.00pm-9.00pm
Island Sailing Club
We all know women whose stories inspire us, move us, make us proud and make us smile. The Isle of Wight is home to many such women - across all ages, backgrounds and professions.
Island Women is a brand-new monthly series launching in 2026, bringing you In Conversation evenings with some of the Islands most inspiring women. These events will celebrate achievement, resilience and creativity, while creating space for connection, conversation and shared stories.
We are delighted that the High Sheriff will join us for our launch event to show her support for what we hope will become a positive, uplifting and lasting initiative for the Island.
Our first women in the spotlight:
Catherine Dixon - CEO of the world-famous UKSA
Professor Lorraine Farrelly - Ground-breaking architect and academic
Expect two hours of fascinating conversation, inspiring stories and great company in a beautiful waterfront setting.
A celebratory drink on arrival is included
All proceeds from ticket sales will go to Island charities
Tickets: £9.50
Come along, be inspired, and help us celebrate the women shaping life on the Isle of Wight.
