About us
The London Women and Wine Club is centred around wine and women. The aim is to learn about wine in a relaxed and pleasant environment, while providing networking opportunities to professional and accomplished women.
It is a virtual club, meeting once a month in different places around London, always private and beautiful locations, with each time some different food and wine choices around a theme. Each event includes a woman speaker around a different subject.
Both Laurence and Anne are qualified with the Diploma of WSET and they are passionate about wine, helping you discover new wines and network while listening to a really interesting woman speaker. The events are interactive and have ample time for questions and networking.
Members will also benefit from a record of what they liked as well as wine tips, discounts on events and other benefits.
Uncorking the secrets of cyber with Monica
67 Pall Mall
This event is now full- no places available - Waiting List
Monica Meade is the Global Head of Audit for Technology, Real Time Payments, and Transfer Solutions at Mastercard.
Before joining Mastercard, Monica worked for nine years at JP Morgan, where she served as the Head of Technology Audit for the Corporate and Investment Bank Markets team for Europe, Middle East, and Africa. Prior to that, she held various audit roles at Credit Suisse and Deloitte.
Aside from her professional career, Monica is a passionate advocate for social causes. She serves as a trustee of the Afro Caribbean Leukaemia Trust, a leading blood cancer/disorder charity dedicated to raising awareness of the severe shortage of donors on the U.K. stem cell, blood, and organ donor registers.
Additionally, Monica actively volunteers with the U.K. Cyber Security Council as an Assessor for Professional Registration titles, offering her expertise in assessing candidates. Her dedication to advancing the field of technology audit and information security is evident from her past role as President and board member of the award-winning ISACA London Chapter.
Monica is a Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), and a Chartered Cyber Security Professional (ChCSP). She holds a Postgraduate degree in Information Security from Royal Holloway University of London, along with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with Management from King's College London.
Cyber costs millions every year and is usually not a question of "if" but "when" and "how long". Monica will share a bit of light on this hidden world and who are the big actors, how do they get away with it, as well as how to protect one's organisation.
We will be tasting a selection of wines from 67 Pall mall, in a private room with some surprises.
Mastering Midlife Change with Sally
Restaurant Saint Jacques
‘Mastering Midlife Change’
"Sally Evans is an award-winning vintner with a thriving tourism business. Not bad for what she calls a 'retirement hobby'." Cathy Hawker, The Times
At 52, Sally completely changed her life. After a corporate career and with a newly empty nest, she began studying wine and moved across France to create Chateau George 7 on the right bank of Bordeaux, despite being on her own and having no prior experience in the wine industry. Her wines are now critically acclaimed, and she has developed an award-winning wine tourism venue.
Alongside wine, her other passion is supporting women to follow their dreams and live the life they truly want. Her newly-published book, Make the Midlife Move: A Practical Guide to Flourish after 50, is a practical guide for any woman hoping to make a major life change. During the evening, Sally will share with us her wines, her journey which she recounts with humour and complete honesty and the key stages of a midlife transformation from defining the dream, to having the confidence to take the leap and crush it.
Please join us on Wednesday 4th of December for what is surely going to be a fun, lively and delicious evening.
