Please note: We are working on changes to links

Based on feedback that users are finding the wordpress generated links not very user friendly (eg http://www.womeninlondon.org.uk/?p=850), we have switched to more date based links, similar to those used on Women in London prior to our switch to wordpress at the start of this year (eg http://www.womeninlondon.org.uk/2009/05/notice-wan/).

However this means that we will now have to work our way through links created since January to update links in our index and calendar pages. If you cant find what you are looking for and / or get a page error message please use the search functions.

So far we have completed:
* January index of information added http://www.womeninlondon.org.uk/2009/03/info-0901/

We suspect this may take a little while to complete - thanks for your patience!
