It may be a bit grey outside today, but I’m off to Are We Powerless<\/strong><\/a> – A public debate on democracy today.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re going, do come and say hello. Just look for the blonde woman in the purple #Emilymatters<\/strong><\/a> t shirt.<\/p>\n

#votingmatters<\/strong>\u00a0is a new campaign from\u00a0#Emilymatters.<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0which champions gender equality and encourages young women to vote, ensuring that legacies such as suffragette\u00a0Emily Davison\u2019s<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0are not forgotten.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not going, you can still get involved. We love this brilliant speech by Ciara O\u2019Connor<\/strong> (co founder of the fantastic Emily Tree Project<\/strong>) made at their recent pic nic for 21st<\/sup> Century suffragettes.<\/p>\n

So, if you\u2019re wondering how you can get involved with<\/strong> #votingmatters<\/strong><\/a>, listen up!<\/p>\n
