This year, Vans have teamed up with Sisterhood to celebrate International Women’s Day all through the month of March!
Sisterhood, a charity dedicated to supporting young girls and gender-expanding youth, has curated a jam-packed calendar of events in collab’ with Vans, for a whole month of celebrating and supporting the gals.
The organisation helps out young girls and non-binary folk aged 13-18, to give ‘em the skills and confidence to become strong creative thinkers, fierce leaders and change makers. So, it only seems right that these events have kicked off around IWD.
Vans, in partnership with Sisterhood, have got stacks of workshops and events across England this month. Wanna’ get involved? We’ve got the lowdown right here! All these events are totally free, so check out what’s on and where, and don’t forget to snap up your slot…
