International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women's equality.

The theme for 2026 is ‘Give to Gain’.

It is a time to reflect on the theme for this year, celebrating women's achievements and raising awareness of the bias that exists in our communities.

Myerscough is committed to our FREDIE Principles and values the achievements and contribution of all members of our community.
