There's a growing movement on Facebook and you can put it on your own page, then you can change your profile photo to One Billion Rising on the big day. Lots of public sector workers are awaiting the packs so they can use stickers, flyers and badges, and develop their own events.

This is my local One Billion Rising but only 10 people have replied to the invites, so anyone else in the Durham area please come and join on the 14th February 12 -2pm.

Here's a link to show where 'flash-dance' events have so far been arranged around the country. You can go along and show support or join in. There will be many more as this movement grows in the next month. Don't miss out - this is something our great-grandchidren will learn about in their history lessons!

Count me in Butty.

butty Im with you on the 14th, anyone else?

Yes!!! A 'feminist tsunami' is how it has been described. One doesn't need to be a feminist to object to violence against women. Pease join any gathering in your area and swell the numbers of women across the world who want to make their voices heard loud and clear on 14 February smile

....but this issue is close to my heart.

I'd love it if you all got your dancing shoes on for One Billion Rising on 14th February.
