Messages of support

 

On International Women's Day we had a stall at Manchester Town Hall and asked people to write and messages of solidarity with women flower workers. We have cards printed with words of solidarity translated into Swahili and Luganda. People added their own personal message at this event.

You can send a message here - we will print it, stick it on a card and send it to ou r partners to be distributed to woman flower workers.

These are some of the cards and messages - click on a picture to view...
