We want to you leave Superwoman Fest feeling like you matter to your community, with connects  with other women and with a knowledge of companies that are there for you. 

Both days will be held in Norwich City Centre at the Junkyard- a laid-back space that will provide spaces for speakers, stands run by local businesses who want to get to know you and interactive workshops.

On Friday, listen to talks and engage in workshops related to the world of work. Discover what it takes to run your own business, learn about a new profession and get talking to inspiring professionals about work and training.

Saturday will focus on health and wellbeing. Learn about hormonal health. Discover your inner resilience in a self defence masterclass, listen to down-to-earth speeches given by inspiring women and share your story with someone new…

This festival is all about togetherness, so men, male employers, fathers, sons and teachers are encouraged to come along to speak about or explore their interests too - alone or in the company of the women that matter most to them.
