Lesley Kershaw runs WomansWork as a voluntary service to help women improve their economic future. This resource provides support for start-ups, the self-employed, those wishing to get back into employment, those facing redundancy and established business-women in the 6 counties of the East of England and more. Lesley says, “The response has been fantastic – via word of mouth and people forwarding the link to others, it has expanded very quickly.”
The website is a one-stop place for news but also direct links to organisations and businesses that support women. Within the Useful Links section under ‘Your Businesses’ women can promote themselves with a listing of £25 for a whole year. Lesley explains, “I produce a free downloadable newsletter called The Notebook for each county every month. Here I gather together the information that has been sent to me, for example: training, information, events, opportunities, websites and networking events for each county. It’s also a great place for women to highlight and promote their own businesses or share something with the Woman’s Work community.”
“You can download as many county newsletters as you wish, especially useful if you live near bordering counties. My contact details are available on the website and my email address is available with your subscription confirmation.” Find out more at www.womanswork.co.uk/
