About this event

Join members of Bath Women's Fund for a potluck dinner kindly hosted by Mentoring Plus on 27th May.

At the potluck dinner, you will meet women who are committed to making a difference in our local communities. You will get to hear from the Mentoring Plus Girls' Group about their passions, aspirations and challenges. You will hear about other inspiring work to support girls in our local communities.

We will also update members and friends on the first grant-making programme for Bath Women's Fund in 2020 under the theme of 'Services for Women and Girls', which has been chosen by the members, who will all be involved in the process to award the first grant.

Please bring a plate to share. We look forward to welcoming you all with a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.

Bath Women’s Fund

Bath Women’s Fund celebrates women’s philanthropy and the inspiring local people and organisations that empower and support women, girls and families. We give collectively to achieve a greater impact – each member donates £25 per month (or £20 plus Gift Aid), or more if they wish.

Together, we decide each year on a theme for grant making, learn about the issues involved and then decide how the funds will be allocated to make the biggest impact.

Bath Women's Fund members have now made grants of £77,500 since 2020 when we awarded our first ever main grant of £10,000 to Mentoring Plus for their Inspiring Girls project. In 2021, our main grant of £15,000 to The Women's Work Lab supported a programme in Bath to support women into meaningful employment. The 2022 main grant of £15,000 was awarded to SARSAS (Somerset and Avon Rape and Sexual Abuse Support) and in 2023 to the Black Families Education Support Group.

This is a great time to join Bath Women's Fund as all members will be involved in our 2024 grant programme. Details of how to join on www.bathwomensfund.org.uk or email info@bathwomensfund.org.uk
