International Women's Day is March 8.

Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that's diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. Together we can forge women's equality. Collectively we can all #InspireInclusion.

🗣️ Here at The Ferret, we'd also like to acknowledge that women are still very much in the minority when it comes to performers on our stage & in many roles across the music industry. That needs to change and we want to continue our own work towards bringing the very best female talent to Preston.
