Builders Merchants Journal – BMJ Publishing to Builders Merchants and the UK merchanting industry for more than 95 years
This International Women’s Day, Williams will be sponsoring this year’s Women Installers Together Conference, taking place in Central London on July 6 2022.
Women Installers Together (WIT), the only national event for all women plumbers, gas engineers, other tradeswomen and trainees, returns to London after a ‘pandemic break’ of two years. Williams has secured the very impressive speaker, Mandy Hickson, one of the first woman fast jet fighter pilots.
Hattie Hasan, MBE Founder and CEO of Stopcocks Group Limited, said: “We’re delighted to partner with Williams and bring such an exciting speaker to WIT this July. Mandy Hickson’s story is genuinely breath-taking at times, she’s a real inspiration. Williams brings fantastic customer service to the next level and we recommend them as a supplier to all the women plumbers and heating engineers we encounter! All the research suggests that tradeswomen have excellent customer service and we’re stopcock-a-hoop to partner with Williams who’ve won awards for exactly this!”
Ray Stafford, MD of Williams, added: “We are excited to be supporting the WIT event in July. Williams recognises the invaluable work that Hattie Hasan MBE and the team at Stopcocks are doing to raise the profile of the plumbing industry as a desirable career path for women, increasing the numbers of women Plumbers and Heating Engineers and improving conditions for tradeswomen and the industry as a whole. We have been supporters of the event since 2017 and are delighted we can take that relationship to the next level.”
Committed to increasing the number of females in the industry and improving conditions for tradeswomen, Stopcocks Group Limited created this annual event to celebrate the resilience and achievements of women in the industry.
This full day event provides the perfect opportunity to share stories and hear from others. There will also be the chance for attendees to network, chat to the sponsors, enter a raffle and tuck into an excellent free lunch.
