It was yet another annual conference with a difference where women in attendance were reaffirmed that they are as strong as a tea bag in a hot cup of tea and that is how they have been able to make a difference to themselves, their families and their respective communities. Evidenced by the increased number of women present for their first time, there was clear cut message that Utulivu has grown and will continue growning while making a difference in the community. Among other very useful information shared on the day, women were given tips on how to:

Develop themselves financially by considering bussiness ventures

Develop academically and be successful career women

Develop socially to be healthy and wealthy

Be motivated to do and achieve in all what they have wanted to be

'They were reaffirmed that they have what it takes to be the women of substance'

All the women in attendance were challenged to make the 4th annual conference one of evidencing what they will have achieved out of this year's annual confernce. We look forward to the 2012 4th annual conference.

It was yet another exciting, inspiring and empowering evening of Monday the 7th March that Utulivu ladies had an opportunity of the company of other women of substance in Berkshire as together with other women in the world celebrated the International Day of Women.The ladies were reminded and encouraged to continue being champions just as others have been their champions.

Utulivu was privillaged to be honored as one of the beneficiaries of support that SuccessNetwork and Chambers of Commerse give to the charties in the country each year in the celebration of the International Day of Women. As it is well known, socially construed values are likely to be handed down to the young by women. The ladies were therefore reminded, challenged and also encouraged that they have an important role to play in the society. More importantly, they were re-assured that ---''the greatest asset you have is YOU and being you is ENOUGH'' and above all, the importance of being alert not to be fooled by negative noises as they do so.

Thank you SuccessNetwork and Chambers of Commerce for being and remaining Utulivu's champions. Utulivu ladies looks forward to next year's International Day of Women.
