Celebrating Women’s Leadership for IWD2025

As we reflect on #InternationalWomen’s Day, we celebrate the incredible contributions of CEHL Board Directors—women who bring leadership, experience, and vision to the table.

For elected Board Director Beth Rundle, joining the CEHL Board at a stage when many wind down their careers wasn’t an ending—it was the beginning of an exciting new chapter.

“I thought my working life was over, but it was just beginning again.”

“Being on the board has been a life-changing experience. I’ve gained so much knowledge about co-operative housing, used my life experience in meaningful ways, and continued to grow with the support of CEHL.”

Beth’s journey is a powerful reminder that leadership has no age limit. The skills, connections, and opportunities that come with board service are transformative for individuals and the entire co-operative housing movement.

Strong, diverse leadership ensures that members continue to shape a more inclusive and sustainable future for generations to come.
