Aberdeen Women's Alliance
Aberdeen Women's Alliance
The Alliance is the women’s consultative forum for Aberdeen City, which encourages women living and working in Aberdeen to meet together, and to act as a voice for women in Aberdeen to collectively influence decisions of the Council and its partners.
Aberdeen Women’s Alliance is looking for women from a variety of ages, backgrounds and experiences, women who want to make a real difference to their communities, women who are interested in sharing information and experience, supporting each other, and having fun in building new networks.
Every woman living or working in the city can join Aberdeen Women’s Alliance. Community groups who have women as members and groups who work with women may send along a woman representative. Membership is free.
Membership entitles you to take part in all meetings and to receive updated information.
