Pink Shoe events are ...thought provoking

Events that progress our careers and businesses, share knowledge, and pass on expertise to others and to the next generation. Events that make us think and act...Many successful women are finding life at the top isn't opening up as quickly as it should and we're working to change all that.

Pink Shoe Club considers issues from every perspective with a forum to exchange ideas and seek practical, tangible solutions. Then via its close links with Westminster and Whitehall it delivers ideas direct to decision makers. And follows up the action too. Events include:

'Pink Tank' Tea Debates and Business Breakfasts

Enterprising Women Forum & Summit

Mentoring  Programme & Leadership Forum

...and based on fun and frivolity!

Pink Shoe Club  organises a number of more fun-oriented events for members throughout the year. There are regular networking events, often in the Houses of Parliament, plus invitations to exclusive evenings in well-known stores, such as LK Bennett's flagship store in Covent Garden.

Alternative Ascot Networking Tea Party (with Hats!)

LBD & Diamonds

Pink Shoe Parties at the Palace of Westminster

To ensure we do our bit, each event supports a specific charity, such as Save the Children Fund or the Duke of Edinburgh's Award.
