We host regular EWiF Regional Meetings across the UK, bringing together dedicated action groups within each area to support the EWiF mission. Each region tailors its own plans and agenda, focusing on initiatives to encourage more women into franchising.
These meetings serve as a valuable forum for franchise professionals and those interested in franchising to gain insights, share ideas, and build supportive networks across sectors and regions. Along with these collaborative sessions, each meeting typically includes a guest expert speaker who presents on topics requested by local Ambassadors.
Our meetings are FREE for Ambassadors, and you’re welcome to attend as many as you like, and in any region—not just your local one! We encourage both men and women in the industry to join us, as we all play a role in supporting more women in franchising. Each region has a designated chair; click on your region below to connect with your chairperson and learn more.

Bring-a-buddy
We’re inviting our Ambassadors to bring along a ‘buddy’ to any EWiF meeting, giving them a firsthand look at what we’re all about. By expanding our inspiring network of EWiF Ambassadors, we aim to encourage more women to step into franchising. Connecting your friends to this industry could open new opportunities for their businesses or even introduce services that benefit our community. And if your buddy joins EWiF, you could earn the title of EWiF Ambassador of the Month!
Think about your network—who could bring value to the franchise community, or who might find inspiration and growth through franchising? Invite them to the next meeting in your region! Imagine the impact if each of us brought just one person, creating a ripple effect as they invite others. Together, we can expand EWiF’s influence and reach even further!
What our attendees say…
Jo Stone, Puddle Ducks
“I find EWIF meetings so helpful and enjoyable. Franchising is a great way to work for yourself and so the more I can do to help other women follow this path, the better”
