Reclaim the Night is an international, annual protest which takes place during the 16 days of Action. The events raise awareness, demand change and remind us all that violence and harassment is still an ongoing concern for women in Devon as well as across the globe and that it is a human right for us to be able to feel safe out on the streets where we live.
The Reclaim the Night team are organising three locations in Devon this year to enable more women to join us...... those who can’t get to the usual location of Exeter. We are having Women Only spaces for 2 hours of craftivism (craft and activism) then another date for the protest marches – all details below
19th November 12-2pm St Mary Magdalene Hall, Torquay, TQ1 4B - a women only craftivism event led by a local Devon artist. Free event.
Make handmade postcards to send to your local MP and Councillors asking them to do more about the prevalence of sexual violence in Devon.
28th November 6.30-8.30pm Town Hall, Torquay, TQ1 3DR – 7pm protest march through the town centre. All Welcome
