For International Women’s Day 2025, we are joining with our partners to celebrate inspirational women, raise awareness about gender equality and to honour the women shaping our city and making a difference in our communities. 

Inspiration comes in many forms—whether through academic or career success, overcoming adversity, making a difference for communities, or empowering others to succeed. We want to hear about the women who have changed our city or benefitted the lives of others. 

Do you know a woman or girl who has made an impact in Newcastle? Nominate them to be recognised as part of our IWD celebrations this year, with some nominees also being selected for special attendance at our celebration event on Friday 7th March. 

How to nominate:

  • Tell us in under 500 words: How they’ve made an impact on Newcastle
  • Why they’re successful in what they do
  • How they inspire others

Include your name and contact details, as well as those of the person you’re nominating by Wednesday 26 February.
