This #IWD2026, we’re embracing the theme Give to Gain, a reminder that when we give knowledge, support and opportunity, we gain stronger, safer and more sustainable workplaces.

Together, let’s acknowledge and celebrate progress — and be honest about where change still needs to happen.

In nuclear and construction, the challenges are real: male-dominated environments, skills shortages, safety-critical work and deeply embedded cultures. But inclusion isn’t just a values statement; it’s a workforce strategy.

Hear from industry leaders on critical topics that shape inclusion and sustain change. This will be an honest conversation to challenge the status quo and provide real-world solutions.

12:00 – 13:00 | Panel Discussion
• Recruitment & Retention – Becky Pleasant, Nuclear Skills Programme Director
• Menopause & Workplace Health – Katy Edwards, Managing Director, Forest Digby Ltd
• Culture Change – Jenny Wilson, Head of Proposals, M Group
• Mentoring & Sponsorship – TBC
• Flexible Working & Work–Life Balance – Gita Bapodra, Finance Director, M Group

13:00 – 14:00 | Breakout Discussions

Deep-dive conversations with peers to share insight, experience, and practical action ideas across industries.

👉 Register now to be part of giving to gain in 2026. ✨

Because progress doesn’t come from intentions, it comes from action.

This cross-industry event was collaboratively organised by a joint team from Women in Nuclear and M Group, inspired by the International Women’s Day 2026 theme, Give to Gain.
