Who are we? We are Barbara Adzajlic & Susie Heywood. We're both public health professionals who developed a shared passion for tackling gender stereotypes to end the limitations & expectations we place on young children. 1/4

One more week to apply for CEO of SOSCN. Excellent opportunity for a strategic third sector lead to make a huge difference in this rapidly changing policy landscape. Get in touch with myself or any other board member for a chat if you’d like to know more. goodmoves.org/vacancy/a4sP10…

Today is #EqualPayDay, the day when, because of the gender pay gap, women overall in the UK stop being paid compared to men.
Our new report shows that the inequality of flexible work fuels the gender pay gap.

If we are thinking about equitable approaches to tackling gender stereotypes, this was a huge missed opportunity!

Apologies - aware that a few people have been in contact and we have not had a chance to respond yet. The joys of this being a side project rather than a day job. We are keen to chat & take on opportunities so bear with us - we will be in touch 🤪

Well done to all the nominees, particularly those north of the border! Sadly we couldn’t afford the fee to have our book considered for the book prize - probably just as well for the other nominees 😂😂😂

Someone at todays event asked “why aren’t we getting training on this stuff as staff groups or at in-service?” We agree! We wish we could do more!

What do you think? In our body image chapter we recommend moving away from commenting on people’s bodies generally. #BodyImage #GenderStereotypes
