Young women broaden their horizons and develop their views focused on International Women’s Day.

A group of vulnerable young women have been meeting for some time, with activities linked to International Women’s Day. They have formed an alliance with young women in the north of England, Northern Ireland and Scotland. On a recent trip to Scotland, they visited places of interest and learned about life outside their local community in Wales. They are beginning to discuss issues and challenges about being a young woman in contemporary society with the friends they have made across the UK. The group plan to host an event in Newport for the next International Woman’s Day in 2025. The young women have attractive photo books to remind them of their experiences.
