Story
We're lacing up our trainers for the annual Dramathon: We Dram relay on 18th October to support the OurWhisky Foundation, a non-profit organisation dedicated to recognising, supporting, and empowering women working in whisky around the globe.
Despite whisky being one of the world's most celebrated spirits, the industry has traditionally been male-dominated, with women facing barriers to entry and advancement. The OurWhisky Foundation is changing this by challenging outdated stereotypes and creating pathways for women to thrive.
What Your Donation Supports
The Atonia Programme: A life-changing professional development course that has supported hundreds of women worldwide, providing essential skills, industry knowledge, and invaluable networking opportunities.
Mentorship & Community: Connecting women globally with industry leaders while fostering conversations that tackle common challenges and build extensive support networks.
Education & Training: Workshops, seminars, and qualification schemes helping women progress from newcomers to seasoned professionals advancing their careers.
Industry Advocacy: Promoting inclusive representation and highlighting diverse career paths, showing the world the modern face of whisky.
Why This Matters
The whisky industry employs thousands worldwide – from distillery workers to brand ambassadors, writers, and executives. By supporting women in these roles, we're enriching the entire industry with diverse perspectives and fresh talent.
Every pound raised helps deliver these programmes entirely free of charge, ensuring financial barriers don't prevent talented women from accessing career-changing opportunities.
Join Our Journey
As we pound the pavement, we're thinking of every woman whose career will be elevated through the Foundation's work. Your donation – whether £5 or £50 – directly contributes to building a more inclusive and vibrant whisky industry.
Together, we can ensure that talent and passion determine success in whisky – regardless of gender.
Thank you for supporting our run and this transformative cause!
