We are over the moon to report back the success of the Women Installers Together conference on the 6th of July. A fantastic time was had by all attendees - travelling from as far afield as Scotland - with talks from Hattie Hassan and Mandy Hickson, one of the first women fighter pilots to fly a fast jet in combat, fascinating round tables and an excellent raffle.

Issues identified by the tradeswomen as significant in the round table discussions, were equality, pay inequality, cost of training, ‘banter’, lack of fit for purpose women’s workwear, and lack of suitable provision for women onsite (eg: toilets, sani-bins etc) with equality being by far the most important.

Several Williams staff attended to share their experiences as women in the supply side of the industry, and to dish out some freebies!

\"Thank you so much for a great event really enjoyed the day

\"I've really taken something from it. I didn't know about imposter syndrome, I really struggle with this, after I cut my fingers it knocked my confidence so much and I didn't think I would be able to carry on the business I'm slowly getting back to work and feel this event has given me that bit extra I needed. So grateful and really look forward to the next event”

“I felt great afterwards

“So good, such a coming Together. “

“Mandy Hickson, spine tinglingly good. The icing on the cake of a fantastic day!”

\"Thank you, it was brilliant\"

\"We had a great time, hats off to you both for organising such a successful event! \"
