#Endometriosis is a main BBC story today. Finally society is starting to wake up & understand the impact this condition has. 1 in 10 women are affected - and the research today shows just what a huge impact it can have. bbc.co.uk/news/health-49… #bbc #news #endometriosis

The #DomesticAbuseBill needs to include provisions for protecting migrant women. As the The Guardian and Southall Black Sisters highlight survivors are too often being treated as criminals rather than victims: bit.ly/2AOdUOL

Research reveals a link between social media use and depression, anxiety, eating disorders and suicide risk. A study by @The_Female_Lead found that following positive and empowering influencers can #DisruptYourFeed and improve your mental health. #PledgeTo pic.x.com/kqrdEBcst3

New Young Women's Trust briefing for #WorldMentalHealthDay2019 highlights devastating impact of sexism on young women’s mental health. Great to now be working with Dr Ruth Hackett Behavioural Science & Health UCL to look at this in more detail! youngwomenstrust.org/assets/0001/21…

Today's #FF goes to @CystersGroup, which is a collective of women changing the narrative around women’s reproductive and mental wellbeing. Striving for equal access to healthcare for marginalised communities through education, information and empowerment.

We all need to talk about this. "Women aged over 50 are the fastest growing group of people at risk of homelessness... with a 30% rise in the number sleeping in their cars, couch surfing or accessing crisis accommodation since 2011." womensagenda.com.au/latest/austral… via Women's Agenda

66% of homeless adults living in temporary accommodation are women, mostly single mothers with children. Our recent consortium meeting focused on working with Women In Safe Homes to build a social investment model to provide a safe place for women to live. #WomenInSafeHomes

Today I dedicate my #FeministFriday to Dr Leyla Sirad Hussein Gikandi OBE, founder of dahliaproject and @DaughtersofEve. Leyla truly defines the word feminism with her inspirational work to #EndFGM. Check out her global photographic project, Face of Defiance

It is a huge, and often dangerous, step to leave an abusive partner. It breaks my heart that 60% of women who achieve this and reach a refuge are turned away due to lack of funding. Please donate to support the The Women’s Equality Party campaign to end abuse. crowdfunder.co.uk/end-abuse/back…

Half of rape victims drop out of cases even after suspect is identified. We need a system that supports victims not one that intrudes into their personal history. Believe women. Change the legal system & invest in rape crisis centre's. #VAWG theguardian.com/society/2019/n…

Gender stereotypes have consequences for women’s health, self-confidence and well-being which may cause them to develop eating disorders, depression and anxiety. Women’s inequality should come with a mental health warning #WomensMentalHealth

I have written a book to help victims in the family courts try to get #CoerciveControl recognised as the serious risk factor that it most certainly is. It contains advice around tactics and pitfalls and is out Monday :) lawbriefpublishing.com/product/coerci…

Female genital mutilation is a form of violence against women. It is a human rights abuse. It leaves scars that last a lifetime. Let’s protect our girls and #endFGM! #orangetheworld #16days

In 2019, a total of 118 women, girls were killed by violence in Canada. On average, every three days, one woman or girl is killed in this country. See 2nd #CallItFemicide Report: femicideincanada.ca/callitfemicide…

11% of girls aged 13-21 told us they have experienced #upskirting - or know someone who has. Thanks to the fantastic @GinaMartinUK, who spoke out against sexual harassment, people across the UK are finally seeing justice. #GirlsAttitudes telegraph.co.uk/women/life/gla…

When men can’t see the problem with laughing about male violence .... women will make them see. Nice work sisters because it wouldn’t have happened if left to all the “it was a joke” men. Saunders boxing license suspended skysports.com/share/11965817
