Take to the sky and let aspirations soar as we celebrate the 13th International Day of the Girl; a day highlighting the formidable strength and power of girls around the world.

To mark this year’s International Day of the Girl, WOW will once again take to the iconic 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: Gillian Anderson, Laura Bates, Alex Davies-Jones MP, Elizabeth Day, Jessica Fostekew, Dame Kelly Holmes, Baroness Doreen Lawrence, Fee Mak, Deputy Mayor Joanne McCartney, Rhea Norwood and Helen Pankhurst to name a few. 

This opportunity gives priority to central London secondary mainstream non-selective schools. Please email schools@thewowfoundation.com if you'd like to be added to our mailing list to hear about future opportunities.
