How it Works for MPs 

MP HERoes enables MPs to encourage and support the growth of female entrepreneurship in their own constituency and in every part of the UK

The premise is simple. MP HERoes connects  successful female entrepreneurs from constituencies across the country with their local MP. 

Each MP becomes a champion of women’s business. Celebrating the business achievements of their chosen woman business HERo and highlighting the dynamism of the UK's female entrepreneurs - locally, regionally and nationally. 

As an MP aiming to increase business in your constituency, all you need to do is sign up and nominate a local businesswoman.  We do the rest, from due diligence to ensure each HERo business is robust and sustainable, to showcasing the HERoes and your support, liaising with national, local and regional media. Or, we'll help you choose a female business HERo from your area.

MP HERoes aims to put female entrepreneurs at the forefront of the political agenda. Creating role models to encourage the next generation of women to start or grow their own businesses. This untapped potential could add an extra £250 billion to UK GDP.

MP HERoes can also link with the constituency for ‘Link & Learn’ online events to encourage more women start-ups and help female founders grow their businesses by providing practical skills and expertise in each area.

By recognising successful women business owners, MP HERoes is highlighting women business role models across the country. 

I’m delighted to champion Breda Murphy in my constituency of Ribble Valley, who runs a great food business which continues to grow. I wish Breda every success!
