#EqualPayDay was on 22nd Nov. We're as committed as ever to fight for fair pay and equal workplaces.

Sally, worked with us and Leigh Day to eventually secure what she was always entitled to; equal pay, and what certainly should not have been a 'harrowing and brutal' experience.

Panorama’s recent exposé shows what women have long known.

Misogyny in the Met is not about “bad apples”, it’s a system that protects them.

Officers at the top of frontline policing still feel free to harass, demean and abuse.

Two days after #NationalDemocracyDay, the UK rolls out the red carpet for Trump.

A billionaire built on misogyny, division and privilege. His presence in power silences women and rewards inequality.

We won’t stand for it.

Today the Employment Rights Bill returns to the Commons.

We’re backing @womensbudgetgrp.bsky.social & several women’s orgs to urge the Govt: Stick to your commitments.

This Bill is a chance to advance workplace equality, it must not be watered down or delayed.

This week we sent a message to the UK Government in review of parental leave and pay...

Mothers are losing out, families are missing time and our economy is paying the price.

Mums still carry the back to school mental load, from uniforms, school lunches, planning, forms, admin, emotional support and much more.

We know this drives the gender pay gap.

✊ It’s time to revolutionise work - to value care, close the gap + rewrite the rules on equality.

We went to Lewes FC to see what football looks like when it is done equally. Penny East, our CEO, joined the only UK club to pay male and female players the same.

Misogyny is shaping how young people see relationships, sex, and each other.

Sex education must tackle it head-on. We support age-appropriate, evidence-based guidance.

Big wins for women at work: Gov to ban NDAs silencing harassment + offer leave for pregnancy loss before 24w.

But the fight’s not over. We need a duty to advertise flexible work, key to closing the gender pay gap.

Let’s keep up the pressure. #EmploymentRights #Feminism
