Speaker: Estelle Hart (NUS Women’s Officer) on Thursday the 11th November

Estelle Hart is visiting Exeter University for an evening from 7.30pm to 9.00pm in Queens Lecture Theatre 1 in Queen's Building, Streatham Campus on Thursday 11th Novermber 2011 to explain the necessity of women’s representation in our student union. As the women's officer for the National Union of Students she will be talking about the lead women’s liberation campaign this year which is ending violence against women students - this was in response to the findings of the Hidden Marks report which found that 1 in 7 students had experienced serious physical or sexual assault during their time as a student. This is the website that has the report and is also an excellent resource for support: (http://hiddenmarks.org.uk). She will also be touching upon the topic of about how the cuts are affecting women.
This is a free event that has been organised by the Gender Equality Society but all students are welcome regardless of whether they are members or not.  If you have any questions about the event, then please email: gender-equality@hotmail.co.uk
