Listen Later

It’s our International Women’s Day 2019 episode! 

In it we talk with the hugely inspirational Caroline Walmsley, CEO and co-founder of Further My Future.

Caroline, Brandon and Lizzie discuss:


  • Attitudes towards apprenticeships


    • Skills and experience


      • Importance of role models - and modelling behaviours - for young women… and young men


        • Reflecting on how equality attitudes have changed in the past couple of decades


          • The damaging narrative of ‘having it all’ for women


            • Why IWD matters and why we can’t be complacent about equality


              • Role of men: they are just as important and are part of the solution


                • Simple steps we can all do to improve equality for more: the power of conversations, discussions, understanding.


                  • About: Further my Future is an application designed to connect young people to careers information about apprenticeship opportunities and employers to connect with young people seeking apprenticeship opportunities.
