Shining Stars Ball

About the event

The evening event is inspirational, high energy and fun! It’s an opportunity to honour some amazing people and share the stories of young women who have participated in our programmes and are now well on their way to being role models to others. This is not a standard corporate event nor is it a well tried, predictable and long awards dinner. It is a celebration of social impact; it is about the girls, our volunteers and all the organisations that make it possible for us to do what we do – change lives!

We always have lots of surprises in store, the food will be sublime and we will do all we can to make sure you and your team/table have a fantastic night alongside raising some much needed funds to support our work across the North West.

TOGETHER we can help deliver on your CSR objectives while raising vital funds to ensure the young women of the region are empowered to become role models for the next generation.

Why get involved?

Girls Out Loud is the leading provider of programmes targeting teen girls in the region. We have a strong brand, good social media presence and a well-positioned website. We are the go-to organisation for the media when it comes to commenting on all things relating to girls and our Founder and CEO Jane Kenyon is a well-respected female champion, author, coach, motivational speaker, campaigner and trainer – working with both girls and women throughout the UK.

Partnering with us as a sponsor of this events aligns you with our brand as well as with the highly topical issue of female empowerment.

We will ensure your presence and voice are part of our mission and you will be mentioned in all publicity for the event and on all our social media platforms.

You will have the opportunity to nominate your female employees to participate in our Big Sister Programme and make a real difference to the female talent in the region.

You may also be able to meet some of your CSR goals by investing in the most vulnerable girls in the UK.

This is a corporate hospitality night out with a difference. It allows your company to show its support for equality and inclusion with a particular emphasis on gender balance and the need to inspire the next generation to pick up the baton.

It promises to be a great night for employees and clients alike.
