Dress for Success NSW & ACT opened their Broadmeadow boutique, offering free career support and styling for women who are entering or re-entering the workforce including refugees and survivors of domestic violence.

Beginning as a pop-up in the Newcastle CBD in 2019, the Newcastle-Hunter branch helped roughly 300 women each year despite COVID-19 disruptions and relocations to King Street, Charlestown and Broadmeadow.
