Happy International Women’s Day 💚
A note from Pippa: “As a female co-founder of Cucumber Fields, I am filled with gratitude and pride for the layers of privilege I enjoy here. It is an honour, first and foremost, to have had the opportunity as a woman to build a business alongside another woman. A business born from a deep-rooted passion for helping others.
I am equally privileged to lead this heart-led ship with an incredible team of other inspiring women too, who are not only highly skilled colleagues but integral supports to my own personal wellbeing.
I recognise that for many women globally, starting a business - or even being able to work - is not an option and if they do, still may not be receiving a fair rate of pay because of their gender.
For far too many women, access to education, a right to share their voice, or even the simple safety of a supportive female community remains out of reach to them.
As we mark International Women's Day this year, it always feels important to acknowledge that this is not a day for "anti-men" protests; indeed, there are many wonderful men who support women in incredible ways. However, whilst I rarely share political thoughts, I do value this opportunity to shine a lantern specifically for women around the world who still need a light on their efforts, a voice for their rights, and a wish for peace in their hearts.
Dear Women, my wish for you…”
