One Tuesday 26th and Thursday 28th, we held interactive workshops for Year 8 and 9 students from local secondary schools.\u00a0 The students were given brief talks on issues relating to gender equality from the time of the suffregettes to the current day, and then given the task of producing an artifact based around an umbrella.<\/p>\n

The finished products showed how well the students had engaged with the issues raised, and also proved how creative they could be.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday 27th, we hosted an Equali-Teas event in Hope Street Exchange. Women from across the North East were invited to tea and cake and to listen to talks from inspiring women. This also links with the University’s Athena SWAN agenda, and Julie Scanlon came along to explain what this and how important it is beyond the university itself.<\/p>\n
