Join us on a ‘Walk for Women’ for International Women’s Day

28 Feb 2020

On Saturday, 7 March 2020, Manchester City Council will be hosting their third ‘Walk for Women’ as part of their International Women’s Day celebrations

The Equality, Diversity and Inclusion team would like to invite University staff and students to join the march through part of the city centre. 

Walkers will meet at 12pm before the walk starts at 12.30pm. The route is fully accessible for wheelchair users, pushchairs and those with reduced mobility. At the end of the walk there will be a range of activities and performances to enjoy as well as information about health, employment, education, services and opportunities for Manchester women and girls.

Everyone is invited to take part – you don’t need to be a woman. Family and friends are very welcome, make sure you bring things to make lots of noise!

We will have a limited number of University of Manchester rosettes and placards available for those joining us too.  If you would like to walk with colleagues from the university please sign up via Eventbrite to receive additional details and ensure you are placed in our University group on the day. 

The Students' Union will also be forming a students’ group at the march, more details can be found on Facebook.
