MEET THE WIM UK TEAM

W IM UK is run by a team of dedicated volunteers.

Women in Mining UK is a volunteer, non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting the employment, retention and advancement of women in the mining and minerals sector as well as raising awareness of the sector as a fulfilling career choice for women.

Our success has and will always be predicated on the dedicated volunteers who support this mission and donate their time, connections and resources. Without them, we would not be able to progress the diversity and inclusion agenda or help women develop their professional and career aspirations in the industry.

If you are interested in joining one of our Committees, please email info@womeninmining.org.uk.

To enjoy the full range of benefits, please sign up to become a member. Membership is free and everyone is welcome, regardless of gender.
