The Fawcett Society

At Stroud Resourcing we are committed to finding the best candidates and the best recruiters for those candidates. They want to hire somebody who is brilliant at their job, excited about the work that they’ll be doing and committed to making things happen. And this includes women!

As a company we are aware of the social and political issues when it comes to recruitment and we are delighted to highlight the work of a particular individual who has raised money by shaving her head for The Fawcett Society!

The Fawcett Society campaigns for gender equality and women’s rights at work, at home and in public life. Their vision is a society in which women and girls in all their diversity are equal and truly free to fulfil their potential creating a stronger, happier, better future for us all.

Over the years The Fawcett Society has managed to persuade the Government to require large employers to report on their gender pay gap, including bonuses. They were also a key player in lobbying for the Equal Pay Act and Sex Discrimination Act, AND they even secured the Sex Discrimination (Amendment) Act in 2002, permitting the use of all-women shortlists for political parties selecting candidates, and ensuring greater representation of women in politics. They consistently continue to campaign and raise awareness, helping society to make huge leaps in progress, and as a mother, and a woman.

At Stroud Resourcing we passionate about supporting the campaign for equality in the workplace and so would like to say a massive congratulations to Georgina Young for her campaign in raising money for The Fawcett Society, showing that a women’s worth is not attached to her physical appearance but rather from the true beauty within. As a company that has a mixture of female workers and a female leader, we thought this should be heard!
