3 March 2023 17:30 ~ Vigil for Murdered Women – For Women Lancashire

[IwantToRetire]

Have only just seen this, but thought I would share, just in case anyone is in the area and want to go along. www.facebook.com/events/881297206467415/

It is only until 6pm

I saw it on the calendar of IWD events (and no it doesn't look like any gender critical events have been organised)

Apart from Million Women Rise tomorrow there are marches in other cities, including Belfast, Manchester and Bristol.

The Bristol event look quite big and much closer to the model of early WLM IWD events. ie local council lets local women's groups use the town hall to have an event reflecting their work and services. But I suppose being Bristol and 2023 only certain women's groups will be represented.

Support for this. Not able to go.

It was a small but perfectly formed event.
It happens at dusk on the third of every month - check the For Women Lancashire FB page to check.
We may not be very many but each month a few people stop to find out why we are there and so a message of remembrance solidarity and resistance spreads.
Join us on April 3rd !💚💜✊

That's great that you do this regularly. I thought it was just for IWD.

Mayby post a reminder closer to next month's event or share info about how you got together to do this.

Imagine is every city and town have an event like this on the same day at the same time!

that's a good idea, will try and remember to do that
yes, if it happened everywhere...

sorry everybody, I didn't remember...another vigil happened on the 3rd April
there will be one on 3rd May, at dusk
