An educated girl is empowered to create change.

Every girl deserves the opportunity to learn, dream, and achieve her potential. Education opens doors, builds confidence, and equips girls with the skills to become tomorrow's leaders.

This International Day of the Girl Child, we're standing up for equal access to quality education because investing in girls means investing in stronger communities and a brighter future for everyone.

Educated Girls. Empowered Futures.

Men can help stop sexual violence before it starts.

Soroptimists are urging men to speak up and — the one who stays silent.

Watch and share this powerful film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qfqAIxGmyE.

The film challenges men to take responsibility for their words and actions, helping drive the cultural change needed to tackle sexual crime against women.

Soroptimists continue to take action to improve women’s safety in our communities.

1,572 projects, 167,858 women and girls supported, 93,181 volunteer hours, and £458,947 raised — what a year for Soroptimists across our Federation.

These results from our 2025-2026 annual report demonstrate the extraordinary power of collective action. When we get together for our annual conference later this month, we'll have plenty to celebrate and build on.

You can help us. Be part of a leading women's organisation standing up for women and girls. We welcome new members who are interested in advocating for change, who want to volunteer in their local community, and who want to make new friends - find out more sigbi.org/get-involved/membership.
