International Women's Day

International Women's Day

On 8 March 2021 Dixon Wilson celebrated International Women's Day with a series of firm-wide activities.  This year's theme was #ChoosetoChallenge, a reminder to everyone that we are all responsible for our own thoughts and actions.  

To kick things off, our own Charlotte Eva ran a virtual yoga session of Vinyassa flow.  

There was then an (Equali)tea break to give people an opportunity to discuss themes of equality, diversity, and inclusion over a cuppa and a slice of cake.  

The day was rounded off with an inspiring talk by Sarah Outen (MBE), an adventurer who circumnavigated the globe under her own steam by rowing, cycling, and kayaking.  She went into detail about overcoming obstacles, and the resilience and perseverance needed to push through under extreme conditions.
