Claire Perry, Conservative MP for Devizes is to be the first speaker at a new women's political networking group - Women2Win - the first event of its kind in Wiltshire. This event is open to all women and aims to be a forum for women to discuss the political issues that impact on their success in the workplace.
The idea was the brainchild of Selaine Saxby, founder of LessBounce.com who are based in Netheravon in Claire's constituency. Selaine explained
"I wanted a forum where women could discuss the political issues that impact on them in their working lives. And I particularly wanted it to be a group whose voice could be heard – and we are therefore delighted that Claire Perry is going to be our first speaker."
Claire, will cover the topic of equal results - the notion that government should legislate to ensure that women are represented equally in society and business. Claire said of the venture
"I am excited by the prospect of addressing a forum aimed at women who wish to debate political issues and how they affect their workplace. Such debate is essential for the health of democracy in this country and I am looking forward to meeting, listening and debating with the women of Wiltshire."
The event takes place at the Holiday Inn, Solstice Park, Amesbury on Friday 25th February at 6pm. Tickets are £5 per person followed by an optional dinner at 7.30pm for £16 per head. Anyone interested should contact Selaine Saxby on 07801 427358. For more information please contact Selaine Saxby 07801 427358 or email: selainesaxby@hotmail.co.uk
