A fascinating and thought provoking evening. Pictured with President Michelle are our first speaker, a friend of many, Staffordshire Women's Aid CEO Charlotte Almond (right). Looking back over the development of services for women in Stafford over 50 years, current needs and hopes for the future.
Then Jaimi Shrive from VictimFocus (left) shared her experiences with us. She talked to us about creating a trauma informed approach to supporting the victims and survivors of violence against women and girls, how it has impacted the government's VAWG Strategy and how we, as Soroptimists can best influence positive change for women and girls.

Did you know that today is World Menstrual Hygiene Day? Why should this matter? Because we believe that every person who menstruates should be able to do so with dignity. 'Together for a period friendly world' is the theme.
This year our members will be putting together a hygiene and care bag in memory of every woman who loses her life as a result of domestic abuse in the UK. The bags will be donated to our local domestic and sexual abuse support charity to support survivors and to provide dignity through hygiene.
