I never learnt to swim - wonderful and revealing response to WPUK meeting showing that safe women sport spaces are vital.

WPUK have published this email they received with permission. It shows how important women having confidence by learning with other women (or girls) is important. womansplaceuk.org/2019/07/16/i-never-learnt-to-swim/

Such a shame that the WPUK web site doesn't have a clear way of indicating that a new article has been published. If I hadn't seen notice of it on facebook it would remain hidden.

I wonder how many visitors to their web site never even know about articles like this.

It is heartbreaking how much pain so many women carry with them, ultimately provoked by a society and rules designed by men for men. And how cruel that now they, we, are inflicted even more pain because we want to protect who we are, and all this secret pain that so many of us carry around is forced out of us.

Yes, so true about WPUK. They need to have a blog, or at the very least a list of new articles, so visitors can see what's new.
