Women's Action Network Dorset is...

The Network (WAND) is still now five years old, and the steering group are still on the lookout for like-minded enthusiastic women to join in and help to run the organisation and plan events. WAND is open to any women aged 16 + living or working anywhere in Dorset ..

The WAND aims are::

• Fostering a sense of community among women in Dorset
• Social links – WAND would like to be a networking group to arrange social event such as cinema trips, shopping trips etc
• Campaigning on women issues such as sexual & mental health, breastfeeding, maternity services etc
• Consultative Body – as the gender duty comes into force public bodies will need to consult with women’s groups , and WAND could offer this function.
• Support for women on a range of special issues
• Signposting – using the experience and knowledge of members to enable signposting to useful organisations and services of benefit to women
• Stimulation – host debates and conferences on women issues, including an annual Women’s Day Event

WAND is still growing - if you are a Dorset women, get in touch and let us know what you would like from us!
