Advocating for the Women of Western Sydney
Equipping Western Sydney Women with the confidence, resources and support needed for personal and professional growth
Overcoming personal and professional barriers
Inspiring, connecting and supporting women in the Inner West, Greater West, North West and South West of Sydney
Empower
Empowering women in Western Sydney is at the core of all that we do. We achieve this by building confidence, helping women face and overcome their personal and professional barriers whilst preparing each woman to be financially independent.
Network
Our women are connected with each other, community organisations, the government and the business world to create access and pathways for personal, business and career growth.
Growth
We ensure that all girls and women in Western Sydney have the opportunity to grow their networks and their opportunities—whether it is to secure a job, a promotion, a client for their small business or build confidence for a new state in life.
How we do it
Programs
We have developed, and continue to develop, a range of research-based programs, designed to support women to build confidence, succeed in all stages of their career, small business, train in new fields, and gain financial independence.
Partnerships
We partner with local businesses and organisations that are also passionate about making a positive impact in Western Sydney. Our partners empower women through supporting our programs and events and gain the opportunity to create connections with our large network of local women, businesses and government.
Advocacy
We’re committed to hearing from the women of Western Sydney about the barriers they face and the opportunities they desire. We conduct research to give local women a voice and use it to develop programs, opportunities, and to advocate to government and media about what changes need to be made to allow WSW to thrive.
Advisory
With a deep understanding of the challenges and strengths of women in Western Sydney, and strong connections with businesses, organisations, media and government, we are committed to raising awareness and creating change to have a positive impact in Western Sydney. In partnership with Western Sydney Advisory, we do this by consulting with organisations who need a grassroots advocacy group who can help them design and implement a positive and pragmatic strategy.

About Western Sydney Women
We are the first and only organisation committed to advocating for all women across Western Sydney to become economically independent and confident.
We provide free programs, workshops and events to develop professional skills for every stage of their career, small business, help gain financial literacy and independence, and find personal growth and confidence.
Amanda Rose founded Western Sydney Women in 2015 with a mission to give the women of Western Sydney a voice, and the same opportunities as the wider Sydney community.
The research conducted by WSW enables us to confidently advocate in business, media and government for our local women and create a positive impact. We partner with local businesses and organisations who are also committed to creating positive change and empowering the Women of Western Sydney to thrive.
