At our meeting on 17th December we voted to support the No More Page Three campaign. This campaign aims to convince the Sun newspaper that it is inappropriate to picture a topless young woman in their 'family' newspaper every day. The campaign is not against nudity but objects to a daily dose of a restricted beauty ideal which is passive and objectified. If you wish to support this campaign you can:

Contact Shoreditch Sisters WI at http://shoreditchsisters.blogspot.co.uk/ as they are discussing actions to take in support of No More Page Three
We meet on the 3rd Wednesday of the month in the Upper Vestry Room of St George's in Bloomsbury, entrance on Little Russell Street, at 6:30 PM. If you want to get in touch please email us at Londonwestendwi@gmail.com
