GWL is a multi-voiced haven for the diversity of lived experience that makes up women’s history. Our blog is written by many different voices and, although everything we share is in line with our values, some of the views expressed are personal and do not necessarily reflect the wider views of GWL. We’re proud to share the words of our staff, volunteers and placement students and we hope you enjoy reading their thoughts.
