To celebrate International Women's Day, Outvertising's Joanne Oatts speaks to Creative Equals’ Steph Matthews, Chloe Davies, Head of Partnerships myGWork and Polly Shute, Partnerships Director for Diva Media about the challenges LBTQ+ women face from the community and society as a whole. We discuss what more industry networks can do to be more inclusive and supportive to all queer women - and what events like Lesbian Visibility Week will do to improve things for the future. PLEASE NOTE: The Outvertising Awards event in April has now be postponed until later this year. The D&AD Breakfast Briefing on 18th March has also been cancelled. The awards themselves are still open for entries. Please check our website and socials (details below) for more details and to ask any questions.
