This was a very interesting event organised by the Parliament Project. The Parliament Project is a cross-party group aimed at encouraging more women to enter politics. The event made me consider how we could encourage more women to enter politics at a local level.
The first step for anyone thinking about getting involved in politics is to join a party and become active within it locally. The following women are all involved with their chosen party and have agreed to be a point of contact for any woman wanting advice about where to start:
Carolyn Leather (Green Party) @Carolyn Leather
Claire Vibert (Labour Party) @Claire Vibert
Yvonne Collier (Conservative Party) @yvonnecollier
Catherine Redfern (Liberal Democrats) enquiries@Lisasmart.org.uk
Dianne Coffey (Women's Equality Party) womensequalitystockport@gmail.com
