I spent Saturday afternoon in awe of an incredible group of boatbuilders! 🛠️ A room full of skill, expertise and talent, then just me… offering nothing but a smile 😃 ❤️ Women have outnumbered men in the newest student cohort at the Boat Building Academy (BBA) in Lyme Regis on their flagship 40-week course for the first time in its 28-year history! 🙏 The rise in female applicants at the BBA is the result of a new Diversity and Inclusivity mission launched by Belinda Joslin, founder of Women in Boatbuilding (WIBB)! Wow! Trust me… I have three girls 👧 👧 👧 Representation 👊 Matters 👊 📰 Boatbuilding News 🖥️ Navis Consulting #boatbuildingnews #womeninboatbuilding
