URGENT - Save Lambeth Women's Project!
Please sign the petition to save Lambeth Women's Project (LWP). This is a unique and much-valued project in South London. We have hosted several FAF events in conjunction with LWP in their building. LWP has been part of Brixton's women's movement for 30 years and now the council is threatening to close it down. Please take 2 minutes to sign the petition here.
Also, if your group has had a relationship with LWP in the past or would like to use their space in the future, please get in touch with them asap to provide a message of support which can be used to strengthen their proposal to keep the building. Email: savelambethwomensproject@gmail.com. If you live in Lambeth, please also contact your local councillor and/or MP!
Upcoming events
Feminist history study days, 3rd Saturday of every month, 1-5pm @ Feminist Library in London
FAF's feminist history group is working on putting together a chronology of women's grassroots activism in the UK since 1980. We are meeting every month to do the research together. Newcomers and new ideas very welcome! Address is: 5 Westminster Bridge Road, London SE1 7XW (nearest tube Elephant & Castle). There is a lift but unfortunately there are a number of steps into this building. Please contact us if you have any access requirements (mail@feministactivistforum.org.uk). Meetings are open to all genders. Upcoming meeting dates are 27 June , 18 July, 15th August. Please feel free to come for the whole meeting or just to drop by at any time (the library is open from 11 if you want to get an early start)
We really want to see FAF meetings happen outside of London too! It has been a while since last time. Please get in touch if you want to organise one where you live.
