Sexual harassment at work is endemic - and it is happening under the noses of politicians and public figures.
Are you a women's rights activist? Have you set up a petition or campaign? Write a blog to tell us what you're doing to fight gender inequality, and have it featured on our website. We also want to hear from Fawcett members; tell us why you joined, and inspire others to do the same!
Adrienne wrote about her campaign for gender neutral field names on marriage certificates. She sent a link to her Fawcett blog to the General Registrar Office, and received a reply with a commitment to consider her suggested reform. She says:
"I was so pleased to be invited to write my blog. The post, and tweets from the Fawcett Society generated a lot of signatures – a highly effective way of getting a message across...My own MP has promised to follow up after I contacted him. If you can garner the support and interest of respected individuals and organisations, you can boost the strength of your message whilst gaining more knowledge of the issue."
Gabby Edlin, founder of Bloody Good Period, wrote this incredible blog for Fawcett, and saw a surge of support for her campaign as a result:
"I was so honoured to be asked to write a blog post for the Fawcett Society, an organisation I have held in high esteem for many years. I gained many new followers after the post, which in term led to a boost of donations of sanitary towels, which are so badly needed by the women we work with."
