How to get there

Can you imagine a world without violence against women and girls?
The exhibition aims to make people think how violence against women impacts on their own lives. Research from Amnesty International reveals that many people feel it is ‘not their problem’ and not an issue that they should engage with.

Visitors will be asked to 'imagine a world without violence against women', and their responses will form part of the exhibition.

When? Which flyers? The backlash ones are out of date now. I might be able to come if you haven't found anyone else yet.

a can of mace and/or a Taser so she can fight back?

That's *not* the way to do it!
