What?
UK Feminista has set up a new London-based feminist activist group. Over the coming year the group will be staging a series of creative, bold actions to challenge sexism and provide visible resistance where women’s rights are under threat.
Why?
Because we think it’s time for some action. Public sector cuts are undermining women’s economic independence. Services for victims of rape and domestic violence are being slashed. A pernicious rise in sexual exploitation is expected in the capital when the Olympics kick off. And abortion rights are under attack. Day in day out women’s rights are being ignored, sidelined and restricted. Enough is enough.

Who?
The activist group is open to everyone. Whether you’ve got bags of experience or are completely new to activism, get involved! All you need is a passion for feminism and desire to take action.
Participating in the group is also a great way to meet other activists and develop your campaigning skills.
When?
The group meets in central London on the first Monday of each month.
