Quarterly meetups! Find out whats happening on the sustainability scene, get peer-to-peer support, and build cross-sector collaboration.

Our autumn networking breakfast!

[VENUE & SPEAKERS TBA]

The session will create a supportive space for discussion around:

skills development and career pathways

leadership and progression in the sector

lived experience of working in sustainability and retrofit

We're looking forward to hosting a diverse group of people at South Yorkshire Women in Sustainability, an inclusive space for peer-to-peer support and growth.

This event is supported by the South Yorkshire Retrofit Skills Task Force. The session will help inform the Task Force’s understanding of barriers, opportunities and support needs for women within the retrofit workforce, contributing to a more inclusive and resilient retrofit ecosystem.

The South Yorkshire retrofit and sustainability sector is growing yet women remain underrepresented across many roles, particularly within technical and leadership positions.

This breakfast event creates a space for women working across sustainability, retrofit and the built environment to:

connect with peers

share experiences and insights

discuss skills development and career pathways

explore how the sector can become more inclusive and accessible
