Thank you to every single one of you who signed my petition today. We're now at over 20,000 signatures! I’m so grateful and utterly overwhelmed by the level of support you have all shown.
Equal Pay Day and our campaign for the #RightToKnow has been a huge success. I spoke on Radio 4 Women’s Hour today about my experience of pay discrimination and the impact it had on my life. Since then, our #RightToKnow petition has been covered in The Independent, The Daily Mirror, and The Evening Standard, along with many more.
This Equal Pay Day, you can take your support and activism further by becoming a Fawcett member for just £8/month. The Fawcett Society leads the campaign to end unequal pay. They:
👉 were a key player in lobbying for the Equal Pay Act
👉 set up a free legal advice service aimed at those on low incomes
👉 are launching the #RightToKnow this #EqualPayDay to end pay secrecy
