Yesterday, we welcomed the one and only Davina McCall for an exclusive chat to talk all things menopause and busting midlife taboos! Rounding up our month of International Women’s Day events, our Group CEO Carl Cowling hosted the event and invited questions from colleagues across our stores, head offices and distribution centres which made for an inspiring discussion on women’s health and some great ideas on how we can continue to support everyone within the workplace. #ForEveryJourneyTheresAWHSmith #iwd

This International Women’s Day, we’re reflecting on the progress we’ve made as a business and the work that still lies ahead to support a gender equal world. Following this year’s theme, #EmbraceEquity, we have a number of events planned across this month for all our colleagues from information-rich webinars to informal round table events focusing on allyship and gender equity in the workplace. At WHSmith, it’s not just about celebrating one day, we’re continuing to work hard on our long-term commitment to build an inclusive environment for all our people. We hope these events will provide an opportunity for our colleagues to learn, have an open discussion, and to create a space for them to listen and reflect. #IWD #InternationalWomensDay #ForEveryJourneyTheresAWHSmith #OurJourneyToBetter
