We are so thrilled to announce that Clear Lines has been nominated for the Emma Humphreys Memorial Prize, awarded annually to recognise women who work against male violence. It is truly an honor to be shortlisted for the Group Award, alongside three fantastic organizations: Million Women Rise, Sisters Uncut, and Rights of Women. Our Co-Founders Winnie M Li and Dr. Nina Burrowes will be speaking at the closing event of the Feminism in London Conference on Sunday, October 25th, when the winners of the prize will be announced. (Winnie is also shortlisted separately in the Individual Award category, and this recent feature in The Irish Times details her personal experience and forthcoming book). We hope to see some of you on Oct 25th!
We’ve certainly come a long way from April, when we didn’t have a name for our festival or even any funds to stage an event. In fact, the only way Clear Lines became possible was through the generosity and support of our Crowdfunder backers. Although there were 138 backers in total, here’s a list of those individuals who donated £25 or more in our five-week campaign. Once again, thank you for all your support in helping us start a new conversation about sexual assault and consent.
A Huge Thanks to our Crowdfunder Backers!
