Take to the sky and let aspirations soar as we celebrate the 12th International Day of the Girl; a day highlighting the formidable strength and power of girls around the world.

On the morning of this year’s International Day of the Girl, WOW will once again take to the iconic The lastminute.com London Eye for a morning of speed mentoring with over 150 young people from London and the southeast, providing them with an opportunity to meet inspirational women and non-binary people from the world of business, sport, politics, public life, the arts and more.

Past mentors have included: Adwoa Aboah, Maggie Aderin-Pocock, Clara Amfo, Gillian Anderson, Laura Bates, Poorna Bell, Jo Brand, Sarah Brown, Dawn Butler MP, Gemma Cairney, Shami Chakrabarti, Lily Cole, Charlie Craggs, Stella Creasy MP, Elizabeth Day, Julia Gillard, Justine Greening MP, Baroness Doreen Lawrence, Fatima Manji and Jessie Ware to name a few.

The young people will then take part in a series of creative career-building activities with WOW working in partnership with the National Theatre and WOW's Global Girls Champion Standard Chartered. There'll be dancing, problem-solving, creative writing and much more!
