About this event:

International Women’s Day is an important Global Day of Celebration, awareness, and gratitude for the struggles and successes of women throughout history. This event is a social value initiative in partnership with Dress for Success Greater London, aimed at women from the London Boroughs of Camden and Islington.

Purpose:

Leading to some women reducing their participation in the labour markets and education. This disproportionate of care on women has increased even further during COVID-19 leading some women to reduce their participation in the labour force, with many more considering leaving jobs and/ or reducing their hours if things don’t get easier.
