Celebrating rural women

The Limestone Coast Women in Business & Regional Development are hosting their 3rd International Day of Rural Women this Friday.

The network’s executive officer Kylie Boston said the day was about recognising and supporting rural and regional women, to bring them together to be involved and feel connected to their communities.

“We want to take a small moment out of our lives for International Day of Rural Women, to consider and reflect on the positive and inspiring Women in our community; to celebrate, inspire and encourage, in a period we all need it most.,” Mrs Boston said.

Jackie Elliott started the tradition of Rural Women’s Day three years ago and currently organises and hosts this event in Victoria.

“We are excited to announce are speakers are Robyn Verrall (pictured), 2022 SA Agrifutures Rural Women’s Award Winner and Sarah Hope a published author, artist, interior stylist and decorator,” Mrs Boston said.
