GRIP was proud to participate in the recent EmpowHER event Buy Local Lowveld event at The Plantsman Eatery in White River!
Our CEO, Tarryn, joined an inspiring panel to discuss vital women's issues - from building a business brand to addressing period poverty and combating gender-based violence.
The event was a powerful platform for open conversations, connecting local female entrepreneurs, and fostering a strong, supportive business network in our community.
Networking is crucial for the business community because it fosters connections that can lead to new opportunities, collaborations, and the sharing of valuable insights. It helps build a support system, increases visibility, and can open doors to potential clients and partners.
Thank you to Buy Local for the opportunity.

** VIOLENCE AT HOME SIGNAL FOR HELP **
The signal is performed by holding your hand up with your thumb tucked into your palm, then folding your fingers down, symbolically trapping your thumb in your fingers. It was intentionally designed as a single continuous hand movement, rather than a sign held in one position, that could be made easily visible.
