MP Claire to be first speaker at Women2Win event

CLAIRE Perry, Conservative MP for Devizes, is to be the first speaker at a new women's political networking group - Women2Win - the first event of its kind in Wiltshire.

This event is open to all women and aims to be a forum for women to discuss the political issues that impact on their success in the workplace.

The idea was the brainchild of Selaine Saxby, founder of LessBounce.com She said: “I wanted a forum where women could discuss the political issues that impact on them in their working lives.

“And I particularly wanted it to be a group whose voice could be heard - and we are therefore delighted that Claire Perry is going to be our first speaker.”

Claire, will cover the topic of equal results - the notion that government should legislate to ensure that women are represented equally in society and business.

Claire said: “I am excited by the prospect of addressing a forum aimed at women who wish to debate political issues and how they affect their workplace.

“Such debate is essential for the health of democracy in this country and I am looking forward to meeting, listening and debating with the women of Wiltshire.”
