EVENTS, COLLABORATIONS, PARTNERS & SUPPORTERS

Coming Together to Create Change 💫

At Empowered To Thrive CIC, we believe the magic happens when people come together. Our events, partnerships, and community connections have been built with heart, compassion, and a shared commitment to making a real difference in the lives of women and communities.

We’ve had the privilege of working alongside some incredible people, organisations, and local champions, co-creating events that uplift, support, and empower. From creative wellbeing workshops and mental health campaigns, hillside adventures and family events, to retreats, panel talks, and community celebrations. Every event has carried the same goal: to bring women together in safe, supportive, and inspiring spaces.

🤝 Whether you’ve helped fund a project, hosted a joint event, shared your platform, or simply cheered us on... we see you, and we thank you. You are part of the movement.

Here, we celebrate the many ways we’ve joined forces with people and partners who share our mission to heal, connect, and empower. Together, we’re creating something truly powerful.
