The first Women in History Group meeting will be Wednesday 21st March at 1 – 2, in the Poetry Centre, Samuel Alexander building (room A4).

This is a group for women who work in history. We hope that the group will inspire and empower women through the positive and productive sharing of information about the past and present, national and international female experience of academia, and will be made available to, and thus made effective by, both postgraduate taught students, research students and female academics within the SAHC. We hope that you are interested in becoming part of this group, and if that’s the case, then please come to the meeting where we can discuss what we would all like from the group, and how we hope to see it operate and develop. We will be in the Poetry Centre from 12 on Wednesday, so if you would like to pop in with any questions, or if you cannot make the meeting but would like to give us your comments or suggestions, then please come in and see us and we will ensure that they are fed back.

Alternatively, please feel free to email your ideas/comments/suggestions to Kelly or Sacha at

or sacha.hepburn@postgrad.manchester.ac.uk

Thank you so much for your support, and we look forward to seeing you next week!

All best wishes,

Kelly and Sacha
