Caithness WASPI Group Join Day Of Action

12th September 2016

Women Against State Pension Inequality are holding a national Day of Action on Friday 16th September 2016. The Caithness WASPI group will be actively campaigning in Wick and Thurso to raise awareness of the changes to women's pensions.

On Thursday 15th September the Caithness WASPI group will have a stand in the Wick and Thurso TESCOs so would encourage 1950s women to come along and find out more about the campaign.

There will also be an opportunity for people of any age to sign the national petition which will go to every MP in the UK at the House of Commons in October 2016.

They are also greatly encouraged by Highland Council's support for the WASPI campaign following a motion raised by Councillors Deirdre Mackay and Bet McAllister at last Thursday's full Council meeting.

The Caithness WASPI group is the most northernly group on mainland UK and have been receiving national coverage in newspapers and BBC.
