The annual Million Women Rise took place on Saturday, leading a rabble rousing crowd of thousands of women in singing, chanting and noise making of all kinds down Oxford Street to Trafalgar Square. Sadly, not everyone felt welcome to join the march, in particular trans women, and it’s important to remember this, Million Women Rise is wonderfully diverse organisation so it is a huge oversight that they have yet to correct this problem.

For those that did attend the march was an electrifying event and there were lots of groups I had never heard of before, as well as some regulars, so do check out. The Butterfly Foundation, Mothers Against Violence, Object, Positively Women, Women and Girls Network, Support After Rape & Sexual Violence Leeds,
