Ahead of International Women’s Day this weekend, we are honoured that WRA Executive Director Julia Turner has once again been named on the Women in Trade Associations (WiTA) Powerlist 2026.

Launched today (Friday 6 March) by the Trade Association Forum, CBI and FSB, the Powerlist celebrates and recognises the wonderful work of inspiring women who work for trade associations.

This is the third time that Julia has appeared on the WiTA Powerlist since it was first launched in 2023.

Julia said: ‘“I’m incredibly honoured to be included on the 2026 Women in Trade Associations Powerlist. This recognition reflects not just my work, but the collective commitment of so many colleagues and members across our sector who are driving progress and ensuring our industry is more inclusive and forward‑looking than ever.”

Julia Garvey, Vice Chair of TAF said: “Showcasing the best of today’s leaders is key to inspiring the next generation. The women on this year’s Powerlist are all outstanding role models who are driving progress within their associations and helping to shape future female leaders. It was an honour to help judge the list again this year.”
