WFWP UK Birmingham - Women’s Peace Meeting for UN International Women’s Day.

We had a really wonderful International Wome's Day on Friday March 14th, focusing on women

who are actively helping other women. After watching a very touching movie, Zahra, about a Somali woman who came to the UK as a refugee, some amazing women responded. Marcia, chair of WAITS, Roohina, a retired gynaecologist and obstetrician, Maureen, a trauma therapist, and Prachi,a trainer in leadership of the heart.. Then an open floor, and beautiful sharing from the heart, by so many women of all races, cultures and faiths.

We finished with a lovely meditation led by Aisha.

Afterwards, we shared some delicious food ... and then lots of chatting and friendship building,!

Thank you to all who came and for your support.

80 women attended, and many commented to me how they felt inspired and uplifted by the

testimonies they heard, and how much it meant to them for their day-to-day lives.
