What a kick-off. Bloomers you always inspire and energise me. Last night, in amongst festival madness and election tensions, we bravely hosted our 2024/25 Bloom UK members kick off event at a venue with a view! (BIG thanks to Jellyfish for kindly hosting us and the team there for helping us with the smooth running of the event) From the buzz and the feedback we've seen so far, I think its fair to say not only was it a successful event, but it has given me real positive vibes about this year at Bloom and what we can all achieve together whilst ensuring we have fun! Our key values of Fun & Kindness that our president Caroline Ayling (m. Hazell) has rightly decided to hone in on amplifying even more through everything we do this year, alongside a whole host of new members mixing with returning Bloomers made me even more excited to launch and deliver this year's core events calendar while getting to connect with all the talented and wonderful humans that are Bloom members. A huge thanks to the leadership team Caroline Ayling (m. Hazell), Hannah Dempsey Kelly Cuesta Hollie Lamond Kerry Nortcliffe Sophie O'Brien Gina Miller Maninder Paul, our charity partner Women's Aid Federation of England Francesca Jackson Sophie Duggan Julie Higgins, our sister community partner BelEve Marsha Powell Chyloe Powell, and our commercial partners Publicis Groupe Paola De Marchi Justina Sohl Kate Williams, DoubleVerify Martha Ross Diksha Sonal and Propeller Group! #TogetherWeAreBloom
Thanks so much for organising such a fabulous event! It was great to meet so many Bloom members and find out more about the brilliant work you are doing to support the next generation of powerful comms women! Fab work, and so inspirational. I look forward to working with you over the next year.
Loved attending my first Bloom event - what an amazing bunch of women! Look forward to working together over the year ahead ✨
