Our story_
In the wake of the public outcry in regards to violence against women in March 2021, we hosted a virtual vigil for any woman who had ever felt unsafe and for anyone who wanted to stand in solidarity against gender based violence

As a result, they set out to build a community which centred on creating a sense of belonging for anyone who was a feminist
Our founders, Sophie Fresco and Jo Atkins-Potts, connected in the height of the pandemic
The Fo_ movement grew rapidly with hundreds of people getting involved. It was clear that spaces which brought like-minded people together were needed
As a result, chapters of Feminists of_ were established across the U.K. and across the globe. Our network continues to grow as does the scope of this movement
