Women in wine LDN is a not-for-profit dedicated to connecting and advocating for women and marginalised genders in London’s wine industry. Join us.
CONNECT
Whether at an in-person event or in our digital spaces, we aim to connect members from all backgrounds and at all career stages. We know the power of building relationships and the impact it can have on both career progression and satisfaction. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting your journey, we provide spaces for women to share knowledge, experiences and opportunities with each other.
ADVOCATE
We advocate for a more inclusive and equitable industry. We know both time and money are unevenly distributed for women, with knock-on effects to our physical and mental health. We strive to break down barriers, promote transparency, and empower women to take charge of their careers and personal lives. We champion equal pay, work-life balance, and push for systemic changes that benefit not just our community but the industry as a whole, ensuring a more inclusive and sustainable future for all.
1200+ MEMBERS
Our 1200 members are from all corners of the wine industry. Members get priority notice for in-person events, access to our dedicated linkedin and whatsapp groups and paid opportunities from us and other members. It’s free to join, but donations are welcome so that we can continue to grow.
9 years operational
Women in Wine LDN was founded in 2015. The past decade has been a time of huge change for the wine industry, from vineyard to final consumer. Though some women have undoubtedly experienced a lot of positive change, there is still much more to be done. Our focus is looking ahead to the next 10.
2 generations
Founders Regine, Hannah and Sula selected 3 new leaders in 2023, marking the next chapter for Women in Wine LDN. We hope this is the second of many new chapters for this ever-evolving community. Could you be the next leader?
Our Values
INtersectionality
We recognise and celebrate the diverse identities in our community. We understand that our experiences are shaped by multiple factors including race, gender, sexuality and socioeconomic background. We are committed to creating an environment where every voice is valued and where all women in the wine industry can thrive.
inclusivity
From the language we use, to the drinks we select, to the prices we charge, inclusivity comes into every conversation we have as a team. We aim to reflect as many voices as possible, hopefully introducing more perspectives into London’s wine industry.
warmth
We believe in fostering a supportive environment where genuine connections can flourish. We build spaces where we can ask and answer questions that are big, small, simple and complex - knowing we’ll be met with encouragement and empathy.
humour
It can feel like the subject of women in wine can be a particularly serious one. We carve out space for humour, knowing that across subjects difficult and light, an injection of humour can release pressure and strengthen our community bonds.
