We are a newly formed group of women who identify with faith – either a major world religion or a sense of faith in ourselves and our female identity. We aim to explore the ways in which we can challenge violence and oppression perpetrated in the name of faith or against faith and support women of faith to stand together in non-violent affirmation of our right to expression of our beliefs and freedom.
We will be holding a silent vigil on International Women’s Day, 8 March, outside the Town Hall, from 1.00-1.45, to remember women oppressed by violence, killed or enslaved in war and discriminated against because of their faith or lack of faith.
All women are welcome to join us. For more details, contact us on sheffieldfaithwomen@gmail.com
