Established in 2012

We are a warm, welcoming group of mums working together to make a difference-no titles, no hierarchies, just unity and sisterhood! Every mum is an equal and valued contributor.

Our Philosophy

- Simple & Supportive: A truly unique and easygoing committee
- Sisterhood: We thrive on support, friendship, and fun
- Equality: All voices matter-decisions are made openly using our thumbs up/ thumbs down system, with majority always ruling.
- No sponsorship required-just bring your ideas and energy!
