Ann Summers hosted the Empower 2026 conference bringing together retail leaders from across the company.

We're the rule breakers, the boundary pushers, and the gamechangers. We've been disrupting the high street and empowering our customers for over 50 years, and doing it flawlessly (if we do say so ourselves). We are the authority in our industry, renowned for our revolutionary toys, gorgeous lingerie and expert advice...but there's so much more that makes us who we are. We are here to support, inspire and liberate, and are a safe space where everyone is welcome. We go hand in hand with our customers beyond the transaction, and exist to drive change, pioneer & push boundaries. We are a movement and we are endlessly proud to champion sexual empowerment for every body. Ann Summers is a diverse business filled with talented experts who thrive on our inclusive culture and ambition to strive for success. Our colleague experience encourages everyone to live our values, feel engaged and enjoy well-deserved recognition and reward. We support our colleagues to learn, perform, inspire each other, and strive to be the best they can be.
