All in all a very successful and inspiring day.
Inspiring Speakers at IWD 2026
The keynote address was given by Marny Cringle who spoke of her horrendous experience and injuries suffered after being dragged under a train in the London underground in 1996. Giving up was never a choice for Marny and it was through her resilience, adaptability and determination she has gone on to be a successful writer, sports person and inspirational speaker. By her example Marny has used her experiences to, “think about how small steps can help you to get started, provide opportunities to learn/adjust, and create the big outcomes you desire”. (quote from her book). Marny’s talk reflected on the theme Balance the Scales’ by addressing justice for all regardless of gender and disability.
Our second guest speaker was Peree Watson, Singleton Councillor. Peree spoke of her life growing up in Branxton , raising a family , becoming a single parent and now entering the world of politics in Australia. Her talk addressed the theme “Balance the Scales” in many ways, but especially in reference to domestic violence having worked for a time with the organisation Got Your Back Sister, to the gender gap closure in the Labor party in Australia.
Sarah Bennett, daughter–in-law of the well know Australian author, Liz Byrski was our third guest speaker. Sarah spoke of Liz’s life and her foray into writing , especially books of a certain genre (ie. Women of a more mature age) that she felt was missing on shelves of book stores and libraries.
