Inspiring to hear the words of Nawal Al Saadawi who is an accomplished author and qualified doctor who has devoted her life to fighting for women’s rights and against FGM. It’s so encouraging to hear that 40% of the members of her organisation were men who wanted justice and fairness for women and for men. #YouCanChangeThis

Looking for a way to help us to continue the vital work that we do but aren’t able to commit your time on an ongoing basis? Why not give us a few hours of your time and join us as we take on the Dundee Kiltwalk on August 19th.🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🏃‍♂ ️🏃‍♀️
The Amina community is full of women and men of all ages, fitness levels and abilities. There is no pressure to do the big walks either; although you are welcome to walk as long as you like; the main walking team will be taking part in “...the wee wander”. We’ll also be doing some walks in the weeks leading up to the event if you want to get some practice in and meet other participants.
We’ll bring the banter and you bring along a friend (if you can) who’ll help us in our fundraising efforts. Glasgow Kiltwalk has generously offered to donate 140% of your fundraising efforts to Amina, so the more you raise, the more they give us!
To sign up visit the Kiltwalk page, for more info call us on 0141 212 8420 or pop in for a chat. Our handy guides are below to help you.
