honest lies

If you can make this event, it would be great to see you there. Tickets can be purchased here.

The event on 14 October begins at 7PM, with the bar open from 6.30PM.

London

The short film ‘Honest Lies’ is based on a story written by Anita James, a woman who was previously in prostitution. The film was 100% funded by Kickstarter pledges.

Following the screening will be a discussion of the challenges and barriers faced by women seeking to leave the sex trade, ways in which they can be empowered and supported, and a clear message of support for a change in UK law, calling for people who are in prostitution to be decriminalised.

Panellists:
Fiona Mactaggart MP (Slough)
Cheryl Stafford (Eaves for Women)
Ruth Jacobs (Author & Campaigner, who was formerly in prostitution)
Kat Banyard (Founder of UK Feminista & Author of “The Equality Illusion”)
Chair: Gabriella Apicella (Producer of “Honest Lies”)

Hope to see you there!

Best wishes

Ruth
