What’s Purple and Inspiring? International Women’s Day of course!
We might not be able to light Kenilworth up in purple as per the London Eye this year for International Women’s Day. But we’ll do our best to follow this year’s theme of #InspireInclusion with our decorations on the benches in Abbey Fields. So why purple for International Women’s Day? Bit of history here, it all started with the Suffragette movement who chose Purple to represent the colour of Royal blood flowing through their veins – surely very dramatic! These days it is associated with dignity and justice. So why the theme #InspireInclusion ? The emphasis this year is for us to inspire women and support them to feel more included in what ever part of the world they live in. The more groups that stand up for this, the sooner women can reach their full potential. You can read more about this by clicking
