North London WEN are organising a Green Drinks party to bring together local business women. Speakers include Emily Thornberry, MP Finsbury and Islington South; Catherine Conway, Owner of Unpackaged and Denise Celeghin, London Environment Centre. The event will take place on 6th March from 5.30 - 7.30 pm at the Queen Boudicea, 292 St John Street, EC1V 4PA. Come along for information and practical advice on greening your business.

We are really happy to announce that on 13th and 14th September 2008 WEN will run a retreat for all local groups. We will let you know more in the next issue of Women's Eye and will also shortly send out booking forms to all local groups.

During the retreat we will run a series of interactive sessions on a variety of topics related to local groups and WEN’s work but there will also be plenty of time to chat and exchange ideas in a friendly and informal manner. We hope to have a really creative and FUN weekend. The retreat is a fantastic opportunity for you to meet other local groups from all across the country.

We hope you will join us for a brilliant weekend!
