17 May 2011Cambridge Reclaim the Night Success
White Ribbon Campaign had a triple bonus when attending it's second Cambridge Reclaim the Night. As well as recruiting 20 new men pledgers, we received an invitation to speak at Fitzwilliam College and a collection of £20 towards the cost of the whistles we supplied for the event. The photo shows the moment when the large womens march is coming around the corner to be met by the Men's solidarity vigil. Chris Green , accompanied by 
Glenn Castell, spoke at the candlelit rally, held in the beautiful Kings College Chapel. Other speakers were from Feminista Anti Street Harrasment campaign, and UN Women. It was a very moving event and well worth 
it. Kings College photo by YangChen Lin.
