WiN UK team reinforced by new volunteers

The WiN UK team is delighted to welcome new volunteers who are enthused about working towards improving gender balance in the UK’s nuclear sector.

Ivan Baldwin, WiN UK President, said:

“Volunteering is powerful and should never be taken for granted.

“I’m looking forward to working with all the newly appointed volunteers as well as those who have been successfully driving forward WiN UK’s mission for some time.

“Specifically, I want to congratulate Concetta Cantone and Martyna Gozdowska, joint team leads for the Midlands, on successfully recruiting their new team and starting their journey for WiN members in this region.

“It’s truly fantastic to see so many organisations across our sector supporting their employees working as WiN UK volunteers.

“Together, we are all determined to push for more women to progress their careers in our innovative industry.

“For anyone interested in joining our team, we do have new vacancies, so please take a look and apply. We’d love to hear from you.”
