“Two things have given me a much better life than my mother had.

Firstly, the establishment of the welfare state, which gave my family a council house and myself a first-class education for free.

Secondly, the women’s movement, which meant I was able to have a fulfilling career with equal pay, equal esteem with men, and the legal protections to ensure I could lead a safe and independent life.

I want these same things for every woman on this earth.

That is why I began to support Womankind Worldwide in their pioneering work and why I am leaving them a bequest in my will. I have asked my daughter to continue my support when I am gone.

This work must go on.”
— Mary, one of our valued legacy pledgers.

We are truly humbled that Mary placed this trust in us. By remembering Womankind in her will, Mary is pledging towards a just world where the rights of all women are respected, valued, and realised.

With best wishes
