Sheffield anti-violence demo this Saturday
By Laura Woodhouse | 19 November 2008, 22:13
Sheffield Fems are holding a demo in Sheffield town centre this Saturday, coinciding with Reclaim The Night London, to raise public awareness about violence against women.
Meet outside the town hall at 2pm, placards and flyers will be provided! This should be a great action, I’ve been out flyering in Sheffield before to raise awareness about the pay gap and people seemed really receptive: so many people are simply unaware of the issues that women still face in this supposedly post-feminist, egalitarian age.
Have your say

- All comments must be approved by one of the bloggers. For this reason, there may be a delay before your comment appears.
