About Refirement

Refirement is a global movement with a mission to reimagine retirement for women in the 21st century.

 

  • Women are living longer and retiring later (a trend set to continue)
     

  • Many want the freedom to choose how they spend their later life; starting or scaling a business, volunteering, supporting others, investing, mentoring, philanthropy; the choice should be theirs.

  • Many will remain economically active well into their 70s and 80s and do not want to navigate outdated stereotypes or limiting beliefs in the process
     

  • Refirement seeks to empower mature women to take control and shape their later years, free from stereotyping and limitation, embracing it as a chance to reignite their passions, pursue new business ventures, and contribute to society in meaningful ways. We aim to dismantle outdated notions of retirement and inspire a movement of women who remain engaged, active, and entrepreneurial.

​

We believe that approaching retirement should not be viewed as an end but the beginning of a vibrant and fulfilling new chapter in women's lives. We are committed to creating a dynamic community where mature women can explore new opportunities, continue to share their invaluable wisdom, and lead purposeful lives

 

We are the Refirement Movement: a vibrant global community celebrating & empowering mature female entrepreneurs who are redefining what it means to lead, create, & thrive.

​

We believe experience is power, and we champion women driving positive, sustainable change in the UK economy.

​

​

Our members are women passionate about business and who;

 

  • Advocate for Change; challenging stereotypes about mature women in business.
     

  • Support their Peers; Engaging & celebrating each other sharing knowledge, resources, & encouragement
     

  • Lead by Example; Embracing opportunities to grow personally and professionally, demonstrating that it’s never too late to thrive or innovate.
     

  • Refirement promotes their visibility; celebrating their achievements, amplifying their stories and advocating for opportunities regardless of age.
     

  • Refirement supports Lifelong Learning, providing resources to develop new skills, knowledge, & experiences, because we believe that growth & ambition are ageless.
