The All Party Parliamentary Group for Sex Equality recently launched an investigation into
women’s access to power. This aims to bring together expertise from a range of sectors and
groups in society to analyse the position of women in areas such as political power, social
mobility and financial power.

The second in this series of meetings will be a forum for parliamentarians, women’s political
networks and the voluntary sector to consider the implications of the measures outlined in
the 2012 budget for women’s access to financial power.

Please RSVP by emailing the group’s secretariat at economy@fawcettsociety.org.uk

I hope you will be able to join us.
