Supporting International Women’s Day in 2025
12 March 2025
This year’s International Women’s Day theme, #AccelerateAction, emphasises the urgency of making faster, more effective strides toward gender equality and it was wonderful to see so many of our team members supporting this call to action.
Our teams marked the day through a range of localised activities across our eastern seaboard locations, sharing stores of women inspiring women and how we can collectively accelerate action and reduce the barriers to gender equity.
These are just some of the powerful stories shared:
“Leaving a hectic home life to walk through the doors every day to work can be tough. My manager helped learn to prioritise tasks and be confident as a working mother to realise if I do my best, that is enough—and to be proud of that.”

I was inspired by a colleague who helped me believe in my strength to support a person with complex needs – I didn’t think I was strong enough.”

“I grew up lucky enough to be surrounded by examples of strong women, both through my education and my working career – what stuck out to me was that each of them exuded confidence and achieved respect but did so with compassion, consideration and inclusivity.”

“I was inspired by a former manager who recognised my potential and invested time in my development. She was incredible, being a mum of three and still making time for me!”

These stories are just a few of the many ways our teams uplift each other, lead with empathy, and push for greater equity every day.
