Welcome to Elara: A Space to Pause, Connect, and RiseAn energising community, courageous conversations & powerful next steps.
Formerly known as Together We Rise Up, Elara Community & Events is evolving - and so are the women who join us. We're a growing collective of entrepreneurial and professional women and marginalised genders who value real connection, meaningful growth, and showing up for each other.
Each month, we host in-person gatherings in Newcastle that offer more than just networking, they’re a space to learn, be inspired, share stories, and build community with others who get it.
Whether you're building a business, leading a team, changing careers, or simply looking for your people - you’re welcome here.
What You Can Expect:
- Guest speakers & panels that inspire honest conversation — not just highlight reels
- Hands-on activities or mini workshops to spark ideas and deepen your self-awareness
- Meaningful connections in a non-judgemental space with other down-to-earth women
- A space to take a breath, reflect, & leave feeling more energised than when you arrived
Our Community is built around 5 guiding principles:
- Champion the women in your life
- Collaboration over competition
- Stay open. Stay curious
- Empowered learning
- Take courageous, inspired action
If those resonate with you, you're already part of what we're building.
