Inspire Me Women
What we do – Our Kaupapa
This is a women’s group, a safe place for women to be themselves, strengthen their networks.
It’s a sanctuary for those seeking a group that is inclusive and motivating.
We often have our own members speak at our Breakfast & After 5 to share their life journey and insights.
This is a group that fuels your ambition, where your aspirations find wings, and where your successes are celebrated and challenges supported.
Established in 2018 Margie Foster and Christine Korako specialise in creating, organising and hosting a diverse range of events and workshops usually featuring guest speakers
We are delighted to hear that women consistently describe our events as a warm, welcoming, informative and inclusive experience
Together, let’s connect, inspire, and motivate; for in unity, there is strength, and in strength, there is endless possibility – join us

Community
Both Chris and Margie believe in giving back. Their annual Charity event is not only a huge amount of fun but all money raised after expenses are donated to Charity. Larger events also have a chosen charity who receive a donation as well as Brand awareness. Personally they also support their chosen charities throughout the year. You only have to look in Chris’s garden to see a 2 metre high penguin from an auction for Cholmondeley Children’s Centre!
