Feminism in London conference
“Positive change for women and girls!”
25 October 2014
Feminism in London is an independently constituted group whose aim is to host an annual feminist convention in the capital. We originally formed from the London Feminist Network (LFN), which is a women-only grass roots networking and campaigning organisation. Since our first conference in 2008, we have been joined by women from other campaigning groups, making this a truly inclusive conference which reflects the growing activist spirit of London.
Feminism in London is organised by a women-only committee of volunteers. The conference is open to all.
