Women In Welding
Lincoln Electric UK
To coincide with International Women’s Day earlier this year, Lincoln Electric UK embarked on another Women in Welding campaign and announced four exciting additions to their team of ambassadors, chosen not only because of their dedication to hard work and ‘boundary breaking’ attitudes, but because they aren’t afraid to be unique.
Established in the early 1940s, the Women in Welding campaign is aimed at attracting more female interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics). The concept celebrates women’s achievements and raises awareness against bias within the industry.
Together, the ambassadors and Lincoln Electric UK aim to inspire the next generation of budding female welders.
