BECOME A MEMBER
WiM UK aims to reflect diversity in its members, events and other activities, to raise the visibility of women in this vibrant sector. We are a place to network, share and exchange ideas.
Mobility is undergoing dramatic change and our group wants to help women to have a seat at the table, to ensure transport’s future destiny is shaped to meet everyone’s needs.
We invite all female mobility enthusiasts to join our group, from students to CEO’s, industry leaders to academics, tech gurus to government workers. Everyone is welcome to discuss the future of mobility and collaboratively create a better transport future.
Meet the Team
WiM UK is run by three mobility enthusiasts with a wealth of experience, drive and determination to make our planet a better, more inclusive, place.
Transport Equity Advocate
Jennie Martin
"Women are under-represented as creators, operators and decision makers in our transport services. WiM UK supports women already working in the sector and strives to make it a more attractive place for women to choose in the future."
Disruptive Mobility All-Rounder
Olga Anapryenka
“Women make up a large proportion of mobility users but not of the industry designing and implementing the systems; I hope we can provide a space for women in the industry to network, learn and develop.”
Accessible Mobility Advocate
Sandra Witzel
“Active leadership from women creates better outcomes for everyone, not least the mobility sector. At WiM UK, we do our part to improve diversity and inclusivity, push the conversation and challenge each other.”

Sustainable Transport Champion

I see a WIM UK as a space for women in mobility to connect, share our knowledge and experience and learn together. It is really important to inspire and empower each other and celebrate our achievements.”
