SUMMARY:National Council 2nd Oct - Examining Scotland's National Care Service
DESCRIPTION:Women’s lives are disproportionately affected by caring responsibilities and engaging with services on behalf of their loved ones.  \nWomen also make up the largest proportion of the care workforce\, which has traditionally been undervalued and underpaid. \nOur National Council on 2nd October will examine the Scottish Government’s consultation on the delivery of a National Care Service. Women for Independence will be submitting a response to the consultation\, based on the thoughts and opinions given at the event. \nThis is your opportunity to affect policy. Your views are crucial in shaping a National Care Service that works for women. \nThis online event will be split into two 1-hour sessions (with a break)\, during which attendees will be spilt into groups looking at the sections of the consultation. A WFI National Committee member will be there to guide you through. \nThe consultation document can be found here\, if you want to have a look beforehand. \nJoin us for this event – or become a member and be part of the movement. Women for Independence events and membership are open to all self-identifying women. \nTickets \nWe are a not-for-profit organisation and all monies raised will be used to fund our research and running costs\, as well as to subsidise free tickets\, which are available for all our events. \nAlthough our events help us raise funds\, it’s just as important to us to provide an opportunity for women to get together and support each other. For this reason\, we always offer tickets at various prices.  It’s your decision how much you’d like to contribute.

SUMMARY:National Council: Saturday\, 24th July. Women in Public Office
DESCRIPTION:We need more women in public life. We are sick of misogyny\, bullying and harassment in politics and society generally. If you are thinking about what you can do\, then this Women for Independence | Independence for Women National Council is for you!\nOur themes for the event are linked: encouraging more women into public life and particularly the local authority elections next year\, and also the rampant misogyny\, bullying and harassment that exist in politics and online generally that must be so off-putting to women\, which is exactly why we need more women to stand. \nAs WFI is not party- specific\, we are keen to be inclusive and learn from the experience of those outwith the independence movement too. \nWe are delighted to have the following speakers: \n\nTalat Yaqoob\, founder of Pass the Mic\nLorna Slater MSP\, Green Party and WFI member\nEmma Walker\, CEO of Change the Chat\nKat Cary of Reclaim the Streets\, Edinburgh.\n\nWomen in Local Elections\nIf you have submitted an application to be considered as a council elections candidate in 2022\, but are still swithering\, this event might be exactly what you need to firm your resolve to progress. Even if you are not\, you can be a part of the support network for those who are. \nWhat do you need? What campaign activity could help?  \nBe part of the solution with the WFI #Sisterhood \nAlthough WfI events are intended to raise funds\, it is just as important to us to provide an opportunity for women to get together\, support each other and enjoy themselves.
