What we stand for

Women's rights are in crisis in Scotland. We campaign to protect and strengthen women and children's rights and aim to:

  • 1

    Protect "sex" in law and policy

  • 2

    Help people speak up

  • 3

    Promote evidence-based discussion

We believe that there are only two sexes, that a person’s sex is not a choice, nor can it be changed. Women are entitled to dignity, safety and fairness.
