Women’s Rights Network
We are a network of women from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland with one main focus: to defend the sex-based rights of women.We are not aligned to any political party - we are women of all political persuasions and none.
Our position is "Respect My Sex" - we support candidates who understand the rights and needs of women, regardless of party.
WRN has around 60 geographical groups, with more than 1200 members. Our members are of all ages, sexual orientation, races, disability, employment status and socio-economic backgrounds. Some of us are parents and/or carers. We have differing religious beliefs. But, we are all committed to free speech and to putting the sex based needs of women and girls first.And we are all women - adult human females.
Our groups offer a safe space to talk freely and compassionately. We provide support to one another and campaign for evidence-based solutions to stop the erasure of our sex-based rights. Join Us! New groups are forming all the time and new members are always welcome.Want to learn more?

In Conversation with Sophie Power - Elite Ultra-Runner
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Faye McGinty is joined by Sophie Power, an elite ultra-runner who, whilst famously known for completing the gruelling 106-mile Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) while stopping at aid stations to nurse her three-month-old baby, is also a fierce advocate for structural change. As the founder of SheRaces, she is leading a vital movement demanding that the running industry dismantle its 'one-size-fits-all' approach.
We sit down with Sophie to discuss how gear, race policies, and training schedules must evolve to truly support the unique physical, physiological, and lifestyle realities of the female body.
