We want to hear from you about the plans you want us to take forward.

To build a society that works for all, because it is fair to all.

1. WE want your ideas on how to build an economy that serves society, not a society that serves our economy.
2. WE want your ideas on how to invest in childcare so that women can participate in the workplace and men can participate in their families. 
3. WE want your ideas on designing an immigration system that works, and that puts equality and justice at its heart.

Throughout the summer Sophie Walker will be listening to members across our 73 UK branches and consulting on our future plans. Check back here soon for details of her tour dates.

If you're a member, get in touch with your local branch to find out how you can get involved. 

And if you're not a member yet, join the party and have a hand in shaping your own future. 

These plans build on our six core objectives - equal pay, parenting and education; equality in the media and in political and business representation; and an end to violence against women. Read our first policy document here. 

What's in a name?

Since the EU referendum, many members of other political parties have come to join us.

Some of them want us to change our name, to become the Equality Party.

They want a new name to fill the void that the other parties have created in our political landscape.

We are called The Women’s Equality Party.

And we refuse to make ourselves smaller to assure the greater and continued power of the few.

We will not bump women down the list of priorities again.

We will not be part of a political negotiation that says you can only have change if you give a part of yourself away first.

We are The Women’s Equality Party.

And in so being, we ARE the Equality Party.

WE are building a party of people, not politicians. A party that understands the inequalities that people experience every single day because as women we have lived with them all our lives.

And in just one year, 65,000 members and registered supporters have joined our movement. And more than 350,000 men and women have voted for us - for equality.

Women understand better than anyone what it is to be excluded, discriminated against and left behind. Our gender makes it so. And so does the fact that we are also old and young, poor and rich, black and white, disabled and non-disabled, gay and straight.

When we end violence against women and girls, we build a freer society. When we make parenting equal, men can enjoy their families too. When we build an equal education system, we liberate our sons by letting go of the gender rules. When we make pay equal, we add billions to the economy.

Because equality is better for everyone.

In July, we gathered hundreds of people in central Manchester for our post-referendum rally.

Party leader Sophie Walker delivered a hard-hitting speech in which she called for a new kind of politics. She was joined by party members who voted for both Leave and Remain, in a clear sign of unity.

We are building a party of people, not politicians. A party that understands the inequalities that people experience every single day because we have lived with them all our lives.

We want your ideas too. We are starting a national conversation to make plans for a better UK - for everyone. 

Join the party. Join your local branch. And come to our first Party Conference in Manchester at the end of November. 

Don't just talk about the future you want to see - make it happen. Join us.
