We were fortunate enough to have Kate as our guest speaker at our annual Cricket Club Ladies Lunch in February this year. She spoke about the power of community and how women can and do contribute so much. Kate’s speech resonated with everyone and we were energised and inspired to be glitter sprinklers too!
