International Women’s Day 2025
In 2024 Wem Rural Parish Council, along with local businesses and other partners hosted North Shropshire’s first International Women’s Day Event.
Following the success of this event that celebrated the achievement of local women we would like to host another event in March 2025.
Shropshire Council have agreed to pledge £1,141 however we need to receive more pledges and at least 20 backers to release these funds.
If you are able to then please make a pledge via Spacehive so that International Women’s Day 2025 can go ahead.
About International Women’s Day
Together we can forge women’s equality. Collectively we can all #InspireInclusion.
International Women’s Day (IWD) has been around for over a hundred years, as have many of the issues that still impact women’s advancement. Since 1911, IWD belongs to all who care about women’s equality. Celebrate women’s achievement. Raise awareness about discrimination.
Take action to forge gender parity. All IWD activity is valid, that’s what makes IWD so inclusive.
