Welcome to LWN Training pages!
Labour Women’s Network has a long tradition of providing gold-standard training, renowned across politics and beyond, and with more success stories than we can list.
We pride ourselves on carefully considered content, lots of interaction, relevant to the world we live in, all delivered by our experienced training team… meaning our courses are in high demand.
Our training approach is challenging, feminist and grounded in political realities. LWN graduates include MPs Angela Rayner, Rachel Reeves, Tulip Siddiq, Miatta Fahnbulleh, Dame Diana Johnson, Abtisam Mohamed, Marie Tidball and Ashley Dalton; regional mayors Tracy Brabin and Kim McGuinness, as well as a host of Police and Crime Commissioners, councillors and council leaders.
Much of our training is only available to LWN members, with the current exception of our Quick Win workshops.
Courses are open to any LWN member (new or longstanding). If you are not a current member of LWN, please join here before applying.
All our training opportunities are subsidised by LWN membership, our fundraising efforts and donations. However, we believe that finance should not be a barrier to participants, so since 2019 we have offered our ‘Jean Black Bursary Scheme’ in honour of Jean, one of four pioneering women who founded Labour Women’s Network back in 1988, who sadly died in 2019.
