CGC Conversations

CGC Conversations is our signature empowering section where we explore one of the biggest challenges women face, which isn't just a lack of social opportunities. It's access to information, confidence, community, and role models.

A speaker series to discuss topics that affect women, this is more than just a social group; it is a conscious way to support each other and learn from experts.

Learn, Connect & Grow Together

CGC Conversations is a speaker and discussion series created by Cambridge Girls Circle, bringing women together to learn from experts, professionals, charities, volunteers, and inspiring individuals.

Through engaging talks, interactive discussions, and networking opportunities, we create a welcoming space where women can gain knowledge, build confidence, ask questions, and connect with others who share similar experiences and interests.

Whether you're looking to learn something new, improve your wellbeing, develop your career, or simply meet like-minded women, CGC Conversations is designed with you in mind.

Every CGC Conversations event is:

  • Hosted – CGC Core Team will always be available, along with a professional/volunteer speaker expert in the event topic.

  • Interactive – We want this to be interactive for all, so we will have activities when applicable.

  • Themed – Each CGC Conversations session will have a specific theme.

  • Curated – from music to atmosphere, everything is intentional. After every talk, there will be a social so we can talk freely and get to know each other better.

  • Food/Drinks - Food and drinks will be available to purchase at the venue of choice.
