There was low attendance numbers and I don’t think they even made the costs back. The tickets were really expensive, especially if like my group, you’re travelling to London from a distance away. There was a lot of discontent that there wasn’t a discounted rate for low income women - we are not all wealthy retired women in the south and getting to London costs a lot.

I can't get into WRN Scotland anymore since they made some changes to their signal groups but I don't really care tbh as it was just a group to chat really, in my admittedly short time in them, I didn't see much other activity planned and yes the structure was a bit confusing for me.

So will Women Of Scotland be invited back into WRN now because they were right? Not that they would want to be in an organisation which threw them out for having opinions.

I’m only involved in my local group now and it’s the same for many WRN members. The conference was a total flop. It would be good to think the core team would reflect on their poor decision making but I don’t know that they have the humility.

Purely from my own perspective as a coordinator for Women of Wessex (which of course is fully affiliated with the Women O’Scotland so we have close ties), I am reasonably confident that if the Women O’Scotland were invited to rejoin, they’d provide a two word response…

I very much doubt any woman in Women O’ Scotland will fancy joining or re joining WRN Scotland , even after being vindicated by the recent U turn by the organizers.
