The Women Installers Together Conference was back for its seventh annual event, which took place at London Metropolitan University on July 4th and the team from Impey was proud to support the event once again.
Women Installers Together (WIT) is the annual industry event for female tradespeople and is the brainchild of plumber, entrepreneur and owner of Stopcocks Group, Hattie Hasan MBE. Women from across the UK and further afield gathered in London Metropolitan University’s Great Hall to connect with other tradeswomen, discuss relevant issues, meet peers, share, learn and listen to a variety of speakers.
With a focus on diversity and inclusion the WIT Conference offers both encouragement and motivation for attendees, many of which have never met another female tradesperson.
The 2024 event marked the seventh year of the conference and was the fourth time that Impey has sponsored the event.
Neil Whitehead, Head of Marketing at Impey, said: “We feel very proud to have attended the Women Installers Together Conference 2024. We have witnessed how the event has gone from strength to strength. Encouraging more women into the trades is vital. Offering our support to this event is hugely important to our business, to the bathroom industry as a whole and demonstrates our business-wide belief in equal opportunities. We were happy to be back supporting Hattie and her team this year.”
Steve Woolsey, Business Development Manager, Impey said: “ WIT 2024 was a fabulous and inspiring day! Full of passion and we were very privileged that Impey can sponsor such a wonderful organization and that WIT are in such great hands for the future”.
Shaun Hunt, Technical and Trade Marketing Manager, Impey said: The WIT event 2024 was energetic, vibrant and very focussed. The event was opened by Hattie Hasan MBE who compared the day along with guest speakers. The WIT team delivered an inspiring day of confidence building and professional comradery, which was hugely energizing to this expanding group of installers of all ages.
The day was based around sharing experiences and how to get over the daily challenges of the industry predominantly led by men and using the established community that the WIT events have created over the years for ongoing support.”
The Impey team were pleased to share insight into its level access showering portfolio with attendees, as well as offering prizes for the annual raffle. Congratulations to the winners pictured (L-R), Emma Morris, Josephine Rainford and Julie Loaker.
