More Info:
The purpose of the Scottish Women’s Convention is to communicate and consult with women in Scotland to influence policy. The SWC is funded by the Scottish Government and is an independent body with its own staff.
Through its policy work, round table and celebratory events the SWC strives to have contact with as wide a range of women and relevant organisations as possible. The SWC has a network of over 300,000 women in Scotland.
The SWC has, over the last two years, undertaken a roadshow programme around Scotland to engage and consult with women on issues affecting them. We have travelled from the Shetland Islands to Dumfries, taking in Orkney, Elgin, Skye, Fort William, Ullapool, Stornoway, Aberdeen, Dundee, Perth, Dumbarton, Dunoon, Bute and Galashiels.
We will be at the Ardshiel Hotel in Campbeltown on Friday 26th August. The event will being at 12.00pm.
The SWC is keen to meet with as many women as possible. We will be discussing issues such as proposed cuts to services and their impact on women, what’s good about living in the area Scotland and what women would change about it.
The roadshow is completely free and a light lunch will be provided. If you are interested in coming along or for more information about the SWC please email mary@scottishwomensconvention.org or visit our website http://www.scottishwomensconvention.org. All of the SWC’s previous roadshow reports and consultation responses are available to download from our website.
