Here at Nottingham Women’s Centre, International Women’s Day (IWD) is a very important and inspiring day for us as well as every woman all over the world. It is a global day that celebrates economic, political and social achievements of women around the world. Since 1971, Nottingham Women’s Centre has been marking the day with a range of engaging activities and events to celebrate women. This year our theme is “Strong Women, Healthy Minds”, in the spirit of the Olympics- London 2012. It will be held at Nottingham Women’s Centre, 30 Chaucer Street, NG1 5LP between 12noon – 4pm. Some of the free events on offer are: head massage sessions, jewellery and crafts exhibitions, music, tombola, healthy food, and lots more. This part of the event is FREE. There is also an after-party at 6.30pm. Tickets for the after party is £3 (in advance)  £5 on the night. There really is something for everyone!
