Mothers March & Speak Out
Date: Saturday 13 March 2010
Time: 2pm
Location: Trafalgar Square then Parliament Sq, London SW1

EVERY MOTHER IS A WORKING MOTHER
The survival of the human race depends on the caring work of mothers. But we get no recognition or support. Only blame when things go wrong. And we’re even expected to do more work to feed the family, often on the lowest pay.

THIS MARCH IS FOR MOTHERS who are raising children in cities, towns or villages l Who are separated from their children or have lost children l Who are surviving war and environmental disaster l Who are seeking asylum l and grandmothers, non-biological mothers and other women doing caring work l Who have disabilities or have a child with disabilities l Who are fighting for justice for loved ones l Who have been raped l Who are sex workers supporting families l Who have been criminalised by poverty l Who want to have children but haven’t been able to l For mothers of every race, age, passport, income, sexuality and occupation l For all of us who are overworked and underpaid. The March will be joined by fathers & other male carers who support mothers.
