Non-profit organisation, the OurWhisky Foundation, has relaunched its globally-renowned mentorship programme for women in whisky amid a major restructure, and is now accepting applications for its first regional cohorts.

Now known as the Atonia Programme, the widely-acclaimed personal and professional development course has been renamed to better reflect the breadth of content delivered beyond mentorship.

Graduates experience an overall 53% increase in confidence, building a long-lasting community of like-minded women around them, while 30% earn promotions or new roles in the whisky industry within 12 months of starting the programme.
