City in the Community is proud to have inspiring women at its heart, from participants, to Young Leaders and staff.

That’s why we’re celebrating International Women’s Day all week, helping to shine a light on some of the brilliant people who make up our team and spread empowering messages to participants.

Amongst the many ways City in the Community is celebrating is through the power of conversation.

Zahrah Malik, a Young Leader at City in the Community, sat down at the Etihad for a conversation with Manchester entrepreneur, Christina Taylor.

Founder of Aim Sky High, Christina has spent over a decade using dance to help transform the lives of young people.

Together, Zahrah and Christina discuss what it’s like to be a young woman in sports and business, who inspires them and how City in the Community is continuing to empower girls across Manchester.
