Join business owners on Wednesday 17th September for an uplifting Cumbria Chamber of Commerce ‘Women in Business’ event that blends sustainable fashion with personal empowerment, hosted at Penrith Golf Club.
With a unique focus on reducing waste, loving what you wear, and leading with confidence, this inspiring morning promises valuable takeaways for women in business across Penrith and beyond.
Meet the Speakers
Gail Gravett – Founder, Cumbria Clothing Collective CIC
Go Behind the Seams as Gail lifts the lid on the real impact of clothing waste across Cumbria and the UK. Shocked by the now-infamous images of textile pollution in the Atacama Desert, she launched her CIC in January 2025 and is now on a mission to give unwanted garments a new life.
Drawing on over a decade of mentoring 100+ businesses via Cumbria Chamber of Commerce, Gail will share how business can meet purpose, and why now is the time to act.
Carole Greenland – Personal Stylist & Founder, Wardrobe Wake-Up
Struggling with a packed wardrobe but “nothing to wear”? Carole’s got you. A trained Image Consultant since 2000, she’ll reveal how colour palettes and personal style can unlock clarity, boost confidence, and help you shop less, but better.
Her approach is all about loving what’s already in your wardrobe and reducing waste without compromising on style.
You’ll walk away with:
- A fresh mindset on fashion and its impact
- Easy, practical ways to reduce your clothing footprint
- Confidence in your personal style and wardrobe choices
- Motivation to make more conscious, empowering buying decisions
