Women into Leadership 2026: The Gallery
On 13th October 2026, women from across the Civil Service came together at the Hilton London Canary Wharf for Women into Leadership London. Now in its sixteenth year, the conference is still one of the main places where women at every grade can learn, connect and grow as leaders. Over 150 delegates spent the day hearing from senior civil servants and from leaders outside government. They looked honestly at the barriers women in the Civil Service still face, and at practical ways to get past them.
In the evening, the Women into Leadership Awards recognised the people who are breaking barriers and building a more inclusive Civil Service. There were winners in ten categories, from Emerging Leader and Mentor of the Year to Ally of the Year, Inclusive Leader of the Year and Woman of the Year.
These photographs show the conversations, the connections and the celebration. Thank you to every speaker, delegate, nominee, judge and partner who made the day what it was. We hope you enjoy looking back, and we’ll see you next year
