Fawcett (virtual) Happy Hour

Fawcett (Virtual) Happy Hour

This event has been postponed, please stay tuned for future events.

We are delighted that you accepted the gift of feminism and allyship last autumn. Since you activated your year-long free membership we have campaigned for Equal Pay and the #RightToKnow, published our Sex and Power 2020 Index, called for society to #ValueCare and fought to #MakeWomenVisible during the coronavirus outbreak.

While our past year together has not gone precisely as planned, we are grateful that you were with us. Our members make our work possible by providing vital funding for our research and campaigning, adding their voices to the feminist movement and providing solidarity in our push for equality.

You are invited to join Sam Smethers, CEO, and Fawcett staff for a virtual drink and opportunity to chat all things Fawcett. This will be a great opportunity to learn more about our upcoming plans, ask questions and connect with other Fawcett members.

Booking for this event has now closed.
