Inspiring Women in Business
As part of the Bangor Business School Athena Swan agenda, which is a commitment to gender equality and boosting female careers within the School, three female students took part in a mentorship programme with successful female entrepreneurs. All students gained valuable experiences and guidance from the entrepreneurs with one student moving on to start her own business as a result of the programme.
“Through this mentorship programme, I have gained confidence in networking and my abilities as a whole. I have started a company called Be Heard, with the aim of raising awareness of neurodiverse conditions. The aim is to support young people with neurodiverse conditions in education and into employment.” - Rebecca Bowyer
0:00 Hi my name is Rebecca, I'm a third year business management and marketing student who lives on
0:05 Anglesey just the other side of Menai Bridge. I was involved in the Athena Swan
0:10 female mentorship program where I was partnered with a local entrepreneur who encouraged me and
0:15 helped me set up my own business. Julie Williams she runs the Coaching Den 4 Life and works
0:19 with Big Ideas Wales. Julie gave me the skill set to start networking more effectively and
0:25 using my passion to make a difference um involving setting up on my own, yeah it was quite eye-opening
0:32 to the opportunities that are around and the support that is there in the local area and
0:37 from the government in terms of setting up your own business. She gave me the confidence to take
0:42 the next steps that I wouldn't have done on my own without her I wouldn't have started going
0:46 to massive networking events in London and such which is quite a big leap from a local girl on
0:52 a small island and she also gave me the really the toolkit to start and allowed me to expand
1:00 on those skills slowly over time and so I've set up a company and it's called behead raising
1:05 awareness of neurodiversity and I primarily work to raise the profile neurodiverse and differences
1:11 in healthcare and education while mentoring young people who perhaps don't have the support system
1:16 like I benefited from when I was younger. Say yes to every opportunity that comes your way as much
1:22 as it's out of your comfort zone because your comfort zone will stay small if you don't keep
1:27 expanding it slowly and slowly and slowly and you'll be amazed how far you can actually come.

If you have any questions about the course, our lecturers are on hand to help. Below are some examples of frequently asked questions. Can you think of any more?
- What are the qualities of a successful Business, Management and Marketing student at Bangor?
- How can I prepare myself to study Business, Management and Marketing at Bangor?
- How will I know that Business, Management and Marketing at Bangor is the right choice for me?
0:06 Well the staff are so friendly and accessible I knew I could go to them with any issues I
0:11 had or any questions about assignments it was a really relaxed atmosphere and relationship
0:16 that I had with them and I knew that they cared about what I was interested in as well.
0:21 I made the most out of the societies because when you come to University for the first time it was
0:26 nice to know that there was just so many different opportunities available there was a running
0:30 club, we would run around Bangor sometimes in Treborth and that just offered the opportunity
0:36 to get out and about meet people again. I'm making friends now that I've made for life.
0:42 We do offer personal one-to-one tutee's and it's just a really colligative atmosphere to work in
0:48 and I do sincerely believe the students benefit from that as well. When students are actually engaging
0:53 with you which is fantastic and you know that you're making a difference that's really rewarding.
1:00 They were always happy to help any time you send an email they'd answer
1:03 so as soon as they could. Just that total support there all the time only an email away and all
1:04 the new friends I've made and all the communities in Bangor it's great.
1:17 So I lived up at
1:18 the St Mary's Halls which is quite a nice little tight-knit community it was really good and really
1:23 refreshing as well to have people both from my course in my flat but also from other courses.
1:31 Bangor is such a beautiful area you've got Snowdon or the Wyddfa so close by and just
1:36 being able to climb that venture around to different parts of North Wales is brilliant.
