40 years ago Asian women at Grunwick stood up to their bosses & changed the face of unions. Help us remember them crowdfunder.co.uk/grunwick40

Commemorating 40 years since the Grunwick Strike

40 years ago some brave women stood up for their rights. We're planning a mural, an exhibition and a conference to mark their contribution.
