The Liverpool Sportswoman’s Lunch was created by Clare Brookfield of Professional 
Liverpool, Marena Mondair of DTM Legal and Natalie Dye of Bathgate Business Finance in 2017. 

 All good ideas come after a couple of glasses of fizz and this was no different. We
realised that there were very few events that were focused specifically on women. There
are plenty of sportsman dinners and lunches but nothing that focuses on the sporting
achievements of women and, just like that, we had our lunch.

 In addition to the three founders the Board now comprises Natalie Dickson of Brabners
LLP, Lucy Shotter of Bibby Financial Services, Lynne Pierce of Flavell Wealth
Management, Ruth Kirby & Louise Molloy of Natwest and Alice Gregan of Langtons.

 We have been so lucky with the support we have received from the Liverpool business
community and our first event was a huge success with 130 guests and raising £7,000 for
Alder Hey Children’s Hospital. Year two saw us grow again with 170 guests and raising
£11,000 for the Encephalitis Society and in year 3 we hosted 300 guests at Anfield raising almost £7,000 for NSPCC. 
Last year we reached a whopping £20,250 for Marie Curie, 
which is why we are determined to make our fifth anniversary the biggest one yet.
