IN PARTNERSHIP WITH UNSTOPPABLE BY DESIGN, AND WOMEN IN CHANGE
By Women, For Women
Our Brunch & Dinner Events are curated spaces for senior women in public service to connect, reflect and recharge.
What Makes Us Different?
Our events aren’t just lineups and agendas — they’re living, breathing spaces where women in public life gather to recharge and reimagine what leadership can look like.
Our events are intentionally small and carefully curated, designed for women in senior or strategic roles - Directors, Heads of Service, Programme Leads, senior managers, operational leaders and those stepping into leadership.
CivicaNet experiences are designed for you and by those who walk the same path.

Why this works
Rather than packing agendas or chasing scale, we focus on depth. The conversations that stay with you. The moments of recognition. The quiet clarity that comes from hearing “it’s not just me".
Titles are left at the door. The focus is on lived experience, shared challenges and practical insight rather than status or presentation.
