SUMMARY:Women in the City: The Ripple Effect - how important firsts and individual action drives systemic change
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the second event in the inspiring Women in the City series\, exploring how groundbreaking firsts and individual actions create waves of systemic change. \nLed by Ironmongers’ Liveryman Isla Cooper\, our panel features pioneering women who have shattered centuries-old traditions to carve new paths in and around the City. These trailblazers will share their journeys\, the obstacles they’ve overcome\, and the preconceptions they’ve challenged\, offering insights into how their actions have reshaped their fields and inspired broader transformation. \nWhether you’re a member of the Livery movement with an interest in fostering wider participation\, somebody with a passion for inclusion\, or are simply curious about what membership of a livery company entails\, this event is for you. Come and hear how women are shaping the future of these historic institutions. \nThe evening will begin with a panel discussion with time for questions and discussion\, followed by drinks and nibbles in the Drawing Room. \nPanellists: \n\nHenrietta Brailsford\, Search and Selection Consultant\, Court Member and Chair of the Ironmongers’ EDI Committee\, who developed the Company’s first EDI Policy and Roadmap.\nLaura Miller\, Clerk of the Chamberlain’s Court\, City of London Corporation; the first female to hold this position.\nVeronica Heaven\, Founder of The Heaven Company\, Speaker\, Facilitator\, and Author; Junior Warden/Middle Warden Elect at the Worshipful Company of Entrepreneurs.\nAnnisha Taylor\, Founder of The Annisha Taylor Consultancy\, Culture & Performance Architect\, Ofcom Group Head of Equality\, Diversity & Inclusion and former BBC Group Head of Diversity\, Inclusion & Belonging.\n\nThe evening will feature a thought-provoking discussion\, giving guests the opportunity to ask questions\, share their own experiences\, and participate in informal networking afterward.

SUMMARY:Audrey Few Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Audrey Few Lecture – The Care of Strangers: Frontiers of Humanitarian Action – by Mr Christopher Lockyear \nSociety Members: Lecture & Drinks £20\nNon-Members: Lecture & Drinks £25 \nCare in conflict zones asks more of humanitarians than clinical or programmatic competence. Christopher Lockyear examines what happens when they are thrust into geopolitical crunch points: their role in accountability and testimony where journalism is banned\, their responsibility to their own teams\, and what they concede to reach a patient at all. \nGood intentions are not the only measure when the act of care is itself a form of geopolitical capital. The lecture asks who is spending that capital\, on whose behalf\, and what we should do about it. \nChristopher Lockyear has spent two decades providing medical care where war had stopped it\, in Sudan\, Somalia\, Palestine and Ukraine. For seven and a half years he was Secretary General of Médecins Sans Frontières\, an organisation of nearly 70\,000 staff across more than 70 countries\, and spoke for it at the United Nations Security Council. He is now Executive-in-Residence at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy\, a senior adviser to the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue\, and a non-executive director of TRIAL International\, which fights impunity for war crimes.
