We’re a network on a mission to ensure women have equal opportunity in the advertising and communications industry.
By harnessing the power of their real voices, we strive to future-proof women’s careers, spearhead industry change and pay it forward all while fostering a strong, supportive, fun and kind community.
This year’s theme is Roots That Rise.
Bloom has always been more than a network. It’s a root system.
Beneath every woman rising is a community that supported her, mentors who guided her, peers who encouraged her, and advocates who opened doors.
When those roots grow stronger, all women rise higher. Together.
Membership applications for 2026/2027 are now closed. If you’d like to hear from us about future events and be notified when the membership applications reopen:
We still have a way to go before women have equal opportunity in our industry let alone those women who are further marginalised by race, ethnicity, class, sexual orientation, disability, or gender identity.
To be truly equal, we need to break down the barriers in our way.
The cultural ones, the industry ones and the ones we reinforce within ourselves.
We are committed to empowering women to be whoever they want to be, to unlock their full potential, to fight for the equity they deserve.
The real voices of women can bring the change we need.
Because we believe in truth as a force for change.
The naked truth. Real stories, shared honestly, that lift us up and give us the strength and skills to overcome the challenges we face.
We call upon friends and allies who share our desire for a truly equal industry to stand by us.
Because together,we are Bloom.

Our latest industry research: THE JUGGLE 2026
We're partnering with PR agency Propeller Group to launch the 2026 edition of The Juggle: the UK's biggest survey of women and non-binary people working in marketing, advertising and communications.
By taking part, you'll help us build a clearer picture of what it's like to balance a career with everything else life demands. Your experiences will help shape the conversations we have with the industry and the practical resources, toolkits and support Bloom develops in response.
It only takes a few minutes to complete and we’d love to hear from you.
📣 Please share this with colleagues, clients and friends who work in the industry.
“Bloom’s research underlines the importance of the lens of intersectionality to drive both understanding and change”
“We’re in the midst of a work/life crisis”
One of Bloom’s key aims is to lead and support industry-wide initiatives and outputs that create lasting change for women in the workplace. We strive to offer the industry practical advice and initiatives that tackle the real barriers women face at work. The Bloom Menofesto is an example of this and is designed to create real impact in the way that menopause is viewed and supported.
This is an updated version of the report first created in 2023 and now updated in October 2026 in response to changes in the industry and the country as a whole, in how we talk about the menopause, if not yet to the same extent, how workplaces support those experiencing perimenopause and menopause.
This is our Bloom Menofesto for change: change in the language, support and understanding given in the communications industry in the lead up to, during and after their menopause.
Backed by our own Bloom ‘Understanding Menopause’ research carried out in late 2021, with input from our members, it encourages an open dialogue within organisations to destigmatise & normalise something that 51% of the UK population will experience in their life.
Bloom Talks offers a deeper dive into the issues that are important to Bloom’s mission and amplifies the network’s industry-shifting initiatives. The episodes get right to the heart of difficult conversations, striving to inspire real, actionable change in the communications and creative industries. Each episode has voices from the industry and the Bloom network.
