Work with the NEU
Event to discuss women in leadership

WOMEN’S experience of leading political parties will be discussed tonight at an event where Natalie Bennett and Leanne Wood, former leaders of the Green Party and Plaid Cymru, will reflect on their time at the helm.

The event, dubbed Another Kind of Question Time, has been organised by the Crossroads Women’s Centre in London.

The group, which is non-party-political, said: “We think that women in particular will be interested to know what conclusions these two former leaders are reaching about parties, about politics, about working with women and communities outside parties.”
