Women's Report

Women's Report was a second wave, feminist, bi-monthly newspaper published in the UK from 1972 to 1979 with international subscribers.

[4][5] Non-profit and self-financing, it set out to relay information and report news and events not covered in the UK national press; to comment on reported events which were of relevance to women; and, by collecting the news and information into a single publication to give them more impact and heighten women's awareness of their position in society.

The aim was to monitor the state of women's affairs in family and marriage law, and social policy.

[4] Volunteers summarised, classified and discussed items of news every week for pages in the magazine headed Home, Legal, Work, Education, Mind and Body, Image/Art/Culture and Events.

[4] Angela Phillips,[9] Griselda Pollock,[7][10] Gail Chester[11] and Rachel Bodle and Zaidie Parr[12] were part of the collective for some time, and went on to work on other periodicals and to contribute further to feminist thought.

Women's Report had lost volunteers and was also having trouble attracting new members to its hardworking collective so the decision was made to close.
