Women in Philanthropy is a network of women building a sustainable fund with the goal of improving local life by helping small, often unknown charities across Leicester, Leicestershire & Rutland. WiP chooses three different charities to support each year, all doing essential work to keep our city and counties healthy, safe and thriving. As a membership group, all WiP membership money goes to support these charities, with half invested to provide a future income and the rest going straight to them at the end of the year. The charities also benefit in many other ways from their association with WiP, including exposure to new audiences, the development of their confidence and presentation skills and every year De Montfort University sponsor and produce a short film for each about work. WiP holds regular events for members that are all sponsored and free to attend and does not ask for endless money. The WiP Fund is being grown through a fixed donation which can be broken down into an easy monthly direct debit of just £41.66, or £500 per member per year. Together, WiP members are making a real and lasting difference to our communities. www.wipfund.org.uk WIP Steering Group: Lord Lieutenant of Rutland Sarah Furness, Lynne Jones, Steph Morgan QPM, Vijay Sharma, Sally Bowie DL, Mehmooda Duke DL, Danielle Garrity, Vera Theissen-Taylor and Caroline Trace.

Women in Planning is an independent network with the aim to promote a diverse, equitable and inclusive planning industry. We believe women should feel empowered when working in the planning industry. ​Our membership fits our vision - it reflects the diversity of work and sectors in the planning industry. We are not a network only for women but a network for empowering women and increasing equality in our industry. We believe equality only comes from being inclusive and therefore welcome all to be involved in our network. See our website for details of our branches.

We connect women from all facets of the property industry, enabling them to thrive by providing unique experiences to learn and grow.

Women in Property creates opportunities, expands knowledge and inspires change for women working in the property and construction industry. We are a networking and professional development membership organisation which, for over thirty years, has been working with businesses and other industry groups to help redress the gender imbalance. Women in Property links members to fellow professionals across sectors and across the UK. We are multi-disciplinary, encouraging an exchange of ideas and sharing of expertise, often through our extensive schedule of best practice workshops, site visits, key note talks and social events. We believe that success and its rewards should be founded on merit and expertise, rather than on gender. We actively seek an industry that is balanced, diverse and inclusive, so we nurture girls aspiring to a career in the built environment, as well as supporting women in 'mid career'​ and at board level, many making the most of our acclaimed Mentoring programme. @WiPUK

Women in STEM Plymouth - WISP, was formed in 2013 when the Plymouth Manufacturers’ Group (PMG) identified ‘increasing diversity in STEM’ as a key objective to continue Plymouth’s growing manufacturing and STEM economy. Representatives from a range of local STEM employers formed the voluntary leadership committee, we had our first event in 2014, and the rest is history! Women in STEM Plymouth's overall aim is to encourage more women to take up science, technology, engineering or maths (STEM) jobs and to help women to stay in STEM roles. We also promote women in STEM within the city, support those in STEM roles and inspire young women to think about STEM as an option for their future. Established four years ago, WISP is managed by a voluntary committee along with advisers. It runs networking events, Lunch & Learn sessions, social gatherings, and site visits to encourage women (and men who support our values) to network outside of their own organisation. Many of our members are the only women in their role or company, and so value the interaction with others who are in a similar field.
