Partnership of Equals Conference, October 2018

The first Partnership of Equals conference took place at the QEII Conference Centre, bringing boys and girls together for the first time at a Mulberry conference.

Attendees at the conference included:

  • Grayson Perry (Artist)
  • Julie Cunningham (Choreographer)
  • Carrie Cracknell (Director)
  • Jade Anouka (Actor)
  • Edwina Dunn (Founder of the Female Lead)
