This is a sponsored post.

WOW – Women of the World festival celebrates women and girls, and looks at the obstacles that stop them from achieving their potential.

Around the world, individuals and communities are insisting on the simple proposition that women and girls must have equal rights and asking the question: why is gender equality taking so long?

There are a range of events with BSL interpretation. More details below!

To reserve tickets and pay on the day, email:
