The Ivy Collection and Papa Salt Gin celebrate unsung heroines for International Women’s Day 2026
The Ivy Collection has partnered with Papa Salt Gin to celebrate unsung heroines this International Women’s Day. From Wednesday 11 February 2026, people across the United Kingdom and Ireland are invited to nominate inspiring women in their communities who deserve recognition for their selfless contributions. The initiative aims to thank those who consistently give their time, energy and care to others, often without acknowledgement.

To mark International Women’s Day on Sunday 8 March 2026, nominated women will be welcomed to participating Ivy Collection restaurants for a special celebration brunch. Selected guests will enjoy a complimentary two-course meal, accompanied by gin fizz cocktails courtesy of Papa Salt Gin. The events will take place across the UK, offering communities the opportunity to come together and honour the women who make a meaningful difference every day.
From carers and community leaders to mentors, volunteers and everyday changemakers, the campaign shines a spotlight on women who quietly go above and beyond. Kate Cooper, Restaurant Operating Officer for The North at The Ivy Collection, said the brand wanted to recognise the incredible impact women have within their communities, noting that the partnership provides a heartfelt way to say thank you by welcoming these women into their restaurants and celebrating them properly.
A spokesperson for Papa Salt Gin added that the brand was founded to bring people together, making the collaboration a fitting tribute to the many women who hold communities up through compassion and resilience.

Members of the public are encouraged to nominate an unsung heroine in their community by completing the online nomination form. Simply share who she is and why she deserves recognition. Whether it is a friend, family member, colleague or neighbour, anyone can submit a nomination and help give an extraordinary woman the celebration she deserves this International Women’s Day.
