Fawcett : Women's No Pay Day - take action

The 17% pay gap between women and men is the equivalent of men getting paid all year and women working for nothing from October 30th - every year!

Fawcett has joined forces with trade union UNISON to declare Tuesday October 30th Women's No Pay Day. We will be campaigning in the run-up to October 30th to demand stronger action from the Government on the pay gap that rips off women.

Your voice adds power to our campaign, so please take one of the supporter actions:

  • Two-minute action
  • Half-an-hour action
  • One-day action
  • As part of this campaign, supporters all over the country will be grouping together to campaign locally. There are already events planned for London, Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, Sheffield, Manchester, Oxford and more. If you want to find out if there's an event near you, email jenny.westaway@fawcettsociety.org.uk

    Ideas on how to organise local campaigning is available on the One-day actions page on the Fawcett website.

    Thanks for adding your voice to the campaign - please forward this information to friends, family and work colleagues - the more people taking action the better!
