It is International Women’s Day! Today we celebrate the achievements of women and raise awareness about discrimination. This year’s campaign #InspireInclusion highlights the important role of inclusion in achieving gender equality.
At East Kent Mencap, there are so many amazing women with a learning disability who have inspired us. Let’s take a moment to celebrate a few of them…
Nicola has shown great resilience and strength. Despite facing numerous personal challenges this year, she has demonstrated remarkable bravery, emerging stronger, with her sense of humour and smile still intact.
Natalie’s journey since contracting COVID has been inspiring. She has tackled each milestone of recovery with unwavering positivity and determination.
Lesley joined East Kent Mencap last year and has spread warmth, kindness and compassion; her caring nature shines through in everything she does. She has been determined to learn new skills and has made impressive progress in her sewing and baking sessions.
Congratulations to Nicola, Natalie, Lesley, and all the incredible women who inspire us with their courage and determination. Happy International Women’s Day!
