As you add thoughtful and feisty comments to a range of content hosting sites you will be developing much needed debate and can work from our London centre or wherever you can get online, from anywhere in the world. To get involved, email us right away.
Shooting for equality crew meeting: Wednesday 3rd March 2010@ 7.30pm
Volunteers are planning a series of documentaries covering the lives of the East End suffragettes – the women who fought for and won votes for women. This exciting project may even include the production of a new play! The opportunities to get involved are endless and the research required is awesome so don't miss this first major crew meeting to get to grips with some big plans. Highlights of footage covering the suffragettes will be screened at the meeting and we'll be looking at how to massively improve upon the limited films currently available, to do justice to the suffragette story. This project is open to 16-25 year olds and new volunteers are welcome to attend this meeting but must let us know as space is an issue. Please email us if you can attend.
