About this event
Govanhill Baths Community Trust has spent the past year spotlighting the women workers who took on Glasgow City Council for equal pay. In October 2018, more than 8,500 workers, most of them women, walked out for justice and won. Developed through oral histories, public talks and a commissioned banner, Equal Pay or We Walk Away captures the stories of women who took part in this landmark struggle. Join women involved in the strike alongside the book’s authors for an evening of stories, reflection and celebration.
