Southwark Works

World Day for Safety and Health at Work

Today is a reminder that every worker deserves a safe and healthy working environment.

From physical safety to mental wellbeing, protecting people at work is everyone’s responsibility.

Let’s continue to build workplaces where safety, respect and wellbeing come first. 💛

Today we celebrate International Women’s Day — a moment to recognise the strength, resilience, and achievements of women everywhere.

Across every community, workplace, and industry, women continue to break barriers, support one another, and create meaningful change. Their contributions shape families, organisations, and society as a whole.

At Southwark Works, we are proud to support women in their employment journeys — helping them build skills, confidence, and opportunities for the future.

Let’s continue working towards a world where every woman has equal access to opportunities, respect, and recognition.

Happy International Women’s Day!

International Day of Women and Girls in Science

Today we celebrate women from diverse backgrounds who have shaped science and changed the world.

Representation matters. When girls see women like them in science, it opens doors to confidence, ambition and possibility.

Let’s inspire the next generation.

Smart tech, safe choices!

AI and digital tools are part of everyday life — from learning and job searching to communication and services. Using them safely and responsibly helps protect your privacy and wellbeing.
