Barnet Council celebrates International Women's Day

Published:

Following the success of Rainbow Week at the end of February, the Barnet Council's Equalities Allies are now planning the next major event for staff – International Women’s Day (IWD), which is being celebrated on Wednesday 11 March.

There are lots of ways to get involved, with the centrepiece of the day being a panel discussion with a range of women from across the organisation, followed by some inspirational videos on this year’s theme of #EachforEqual.
