International Women’s Day celebrated annually on 8th March, is a global moment to recognise the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women, and gender equality.

At WAITS, we believe that meaningful change must be informed by the lived experiences of the women we support. This March marked an important milestone in our ongoing research project.

WAITS is proud to be part of the Forever Fund initiative, led by the Women’s Resource Centre, designed to support women’s organisations building long-term financial sustainability and resilience.

We are delighted to announce that the WAITS Annual Ball will take place on 7th November 2026 at the stunning Park Regis Birmingham.

On Wednesday the 19th February, our Change the System Conference was held in collaboration with Birmingham City University. Thanks to all those who supported and attended the event.
