@krossings@mch_newcastle@UniofNewcastle A lot of positive energy from out pop up choir for International Women's Day, rehearsal at Newcastle Uni and then singing at the Monument, supporting women seeking sanctuary in the city.
#LoSGE19 a bit like international women's day, I expected a nod in women's direction on Equal Pay Day today. Labour and LibDems didnt disappoint with a range of (uncosted) actions to close the gender pay gap, but the blond has been strangely silent or maybe I missed his pledge☹️
Impressive crowd for Penny Remfry’s Guided Talk of her 1970s feminist activism posters. These are currently being exhibited in the foyer of Student Central @NorthumbriaUni as part of the Festival of Feminist Ideas & Action:
“Society as a whole needs to be re-educated about what it is to be a women...we should celebrate our bodies, not be ashamed of them.”
#TNV went along to the Period Positivity event ran by @NewcastleCC and @Womens100 on #IWD2019 🚺💪🏼👯

Today we marked #InternationalWomensDay by turning Grey's Monument red to raise awareness of Period Poverty. ♀️
