This year’s London Region Women’s Conference is taking place on Saturday, 30 September, in central London (full details below).
The aim of the Conference is to encourage women members to get active in GMB, to address our continuing under-representation, as well as to increase activism and build our union.
The theme is the impact of the cost-of-living crisis, and 13 years of austerity, on women. We will have sessions and presentations on four issues that have had a particular impact on women and have been exacerbated by the cost-of-living crisis and austerity: violence at work, low pay/equal pay, lack of affordable childcare and disabilities. We will explore some of the main causes, and how women can fight back and achieve change through getting active in GMB. As always, it will be a very warm, inclusive and welcoming space for women to learn, network and share ideas and knowledge.
We have been asked to circulate the details to all our members, and encourage women members – especially those not yet active – to apply for a place?
