    In the aftermath of the beer industry’s own #metoo which triggered the incredible, powerful Brave Noise movement, we’ll talk to a panel of activists and game changers to discuss our personal experiences and some of the work they are leading on, with reflection on the million pound question: Is beer a safe space now?

    Shreena Gobey, Women’s Night Safe Coordinator, Women’s Lives Leeds.

    Farah Benis, Founder and Managing Director of FFA Security Group and Board Member of a board member of Chalk Back, a youth-led organisation that is committed to tackling public street harassment.

    Elysia O'Neill and Della Claydon, Founders of The Egalitarian, an organisation working to create a fairer society through community-led, data-driven projects and training, including certification for the night time economy.

Day 5: 28th May 2023

  • Article: WOTFEST Ones to Watch by Emmie Harrison-West

    Online, Free | READ IT HERE
    10am

    Women belong in beer - except, the beer, brewing and hospitality industry doesn’t always make it seem that way. In our fight for equality, and a diverse beer, brewing and hospitality industry, we need role models. Game changers that inspire, and lead by example. Too often, women’s stories in beer that make headlines or podcasts are focused around trauma. What happened to us, rather than what is happening with us.

    Instead, this year, WOTFEST has chosen 2023’s ‘Ones to Watch’. Written by Emmie Harrison-West.
