Book your tickets to our Reset and Rise Panel Discussion: 
Real Stories, Real Women

We’re proud to present a panel of five inspiring women from the Yorkshire Ladies Links membership, each ready to share their personal and professional journeys.

Each brings her own story and experience to the table, some with deep Yorkshire roots, others who’ve chosen to build their business life here, but all with the same drive to make a difference. They’ve all faced moments where they’ve had to pause, take stock and start again, personally and professionally. Their stories are honest, uplifting and capture the strength, authenticity and ambition that define this remarkable community of women.

We’re delighted to welcome back Christa Ackroyd as our host for this session. A respected journalist and broadcaster, and a familiar face to our network, Christa brings warmth, wit and genuine curiosity to every conversation. She’s interviewed world leaders and royalty, but her real passion lies in sharing the stories of everyday people doing extraordinary things, making her the perfect host for this discussion.

Meet Our Panel
Sally Bendtson – Managing Director, Limelight HR

Jodie Harris – Luxury Travel Business Owner, Founder, The Padel Network and Vice Chair of PhysCap Children's Charity

Rachel Hill – Award-winning Entrepreneur and Director, Bondville Model Village

Dally Kaur – Director, Ideas That Work

Emily Mallender – Founder, Empowered with Emily

Each of these women has taken a different path, building careers and businesses that reflect who they are and what they believe in.

Tickets for the panel session are complimentary but must be booked separately in advance. Our speaker sessions always fill quickly, so we recommend securing your place early.

Book your tickets to Believe Achieve
Join us for a powerful session at our Yorkshire Voices, Reset &amp; Rise Conference, as Christine Talbot sits down with broadcasting star Stephanie Hirst for an honest, moving and uplifting conversation. Believe Achieve explores courage, reinvention and the strength to rise.

In this special session, Christine Talbot will guide the conversation, drawing out the depth and emotion behind Stephanie’s remarkable story.

Stephanie Hirst believes that anything is possible, but for her, the odds were seemingly against her from day one. Raised with an abundance of love by her adoring parents on a northern council estate during the 80s &amp; 90s, where she was bullied, teased, and repeatedly told by others that her childhood dream of working in the radio industry… would never come to fruition.

She was also battling a huge internal conflict with herself, which threatened to destroy the radio dream and life she had worked so hard to accomplish.

This is a rollercoaster of a story, from entertaining audiences of millions, to being faced with the gut-wrenching decision to either throw it all away, take her own life, or believe that she could rise from the ashes of a once celebrated career.

This is the inspirational story of how, if you believe it, you can achieve it.

With Christine’s thoughtful interviewing style and deep understanding of storytelling, this conversation promises to be honest, moving and unforgettable. BOOK YOUR FREE TICKET HERE: https://www.yorkshireladieslinks.co.uk/events/yorkshire-voices-reset-and-rise-conference-believe-achieve

Book your tickets to Join Christa Ackroyd as she Sits Down with Claire Throssell MBE

Yorkshire Ladies Links is honoured to welcome back Claire Throssell MBE, a campaigner whose courage and determination have inspired people across Yorkshire and beyond. Claire has shared her raw and heartbreaking story at recent Yorkshire Ladies Links events, leaving a lasting impression on all who heard her speak. But this session is different. This is a conversation with answers, a moment many of us have walked alongside Claire in hoping for, and a chance for our community to come together to support her as she continues her journey for change.


Please note: To attend this session, you must book a ticket and have a confirmed booking. You will also need to book a free General Admission ticket for the Yorkshire Voices: Reset &amp; Rise Conference 2026.

A Historic Moment and the Beginning of What Comes Next
After years of tireless campaigning and the unimaginable loss of her two sons, Paul and Jack, eleven years ago, Claire’s voice has finally been heard. Sir Keir Starmer announced that a future Labour government will repeal the presumption of parental involvement in family law, the very change Claire has fought for since that devastating loss.

Why You Should Be in the Room
This is not a standard talk. It’s a rare and deeply moving conversation, shared with honesty and care by a woman whose courage has helped change the law. This is more than an event; it’s a chance to hear Claire’s story, to understand the journey she has been on, and to stand together as a community that cares.

Supporting Women in Yorkshire: Our Charity Partner
We are proud to be partnering with Smart Works Leeds, an organisation that supports unemployed women with free coaching, personal styling, and job interview preparation. Over the past year, Smart Works has helped over 1,000 women across Yorkshire build confidence, secure employment, and transform their futures.

Stories That Inspire: Rebecca’s Journey

Rebecca came to Smart Works Leeds with her teenage daughter after surviving years in an abusive relationship. Unsure of where to turn or what to wear for an upcoming job interview, she met Fran, Smart Works Leeds' Outreach Assistant and a former client herself.

“From the moment we walked through the door, we were treated with such care and kindness. I had spent so long wearing black, and Smart Works helped me find colour again.”

Today, both Rebecca and her daughter are employed. Rebecca is now volunteering in her community and supporting other women through a peer group she started herself.

Smart Works is changing lives — and we are proud to support their mission.
