T-Shirt With Village Slogan

As many will be aware the T-shirt logo poll closed recently with the slogan Where Community Matters‘ receiving the most votes.  There were 2,768 votes cast with the winner receiving nearly 30% of them.

The sponsor, who wishes to remain anonymous, has stated that a small company StuartAusten.co.uk has been asked to research how and where the T-shirts can be produced.

Originally, the sponsor had stated that any profits for the sale of the T-shirts should be put forward to support the Save the White Lion fund. However, given the fact that this worthy cause has exceeded its target, it has been decided that the profits will go towards the purchase of a memorial for those lost in conflict.  At present no external memorial exists in the village.

T-shirts will be £15 and the size chart is below:

If you have any questions or orders, please contact my private e mail: chagoigray@gmail.com putting T-shirt in the subject title.

Thank you.
Adrian Gray.

International Womens Day – Tuesday, 8th March

International Women’s Day 2022: this year’s theme is #BreakTheBias.

The organisation is calling on people toimagine a gender equal worldwhich is free of biases, stereotypes and discrimination against women. The UN’s theme isgender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”.

Unable to meet up with your female friends? Here are 6 meaningful ways in which you can celebrate virtually on March 8th:

  1. Educate Yourself About Women’s Rights.
  2. Donate To Non-profits That Benefit Women.
  3. Chill With Your Girls Over Zoom Call.
  4. Support Local Women-Owned Brands.
  5. Book Club Featuring Women Authors.
  6. Watch Women-Led Movies.

Purple, green and white are the colours of International Women’s Day.

  • Purple signifies justice and dignity.
  • Green symbolizes hope.
  • White represents purity, albeit a controversial concept.

The colours originated from the colours worn by the Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU) in the UK in 1908.

International Women’s Day was first established at the 1910 International Socialist Women’s Conference in Copenhagen. German women’s rights activist and Marxist theorist Clara Zetkin was the one who tabled the idea 🙂

Let’s not forget International Men’s Day…

This event is on Saturday, 19th November 2022 and focuses on men’s health, improving gender relations, highlighting male role models, and promoting positive expressions of masculinity. It’s also an opportunity to recognize men who don’t fall into traditional manifestations of masculinity, such as gay and bisexual men, transgender, or masculine non-binary people.
