Reclaim the Night 2015

Reclaim the Night 2015!

On Thursday 26 February, we Reclaim the Night and raise our collective voices against street harassment, violence against women, rape culture and victim blaming.

The march starts at Owens Park, Wilmslow Road, Fallowfield at 19:00. A neon parade will head down Wilmslow Road towards the University of Manchester Students’ Union. The march will be led by a women’s-only block, open to all self-defining women, and followed by a mixed march open to all genders.

The evening continues with the Reclaim the Night After Party, a festival of the finest women speakers, performers and DJs at the Students’ Union Club Academy.

This year is going to be bigger, brighter and louder than ever. Bring your glow sticks, bring your friends and bring your voices.

Light up the city, fill it with noise. I have attached to this email a poster as well as a promotional pack with more information, example tweets and links to our video which we hope you will share with your networks. Last year saw over 700 people march and we would love for you to be part of what is always a spectacular and empowering evening.

If you have any more questions or want more involvement please don’t hesitate to drop me a message or check out:
