🌍 Happy International Women’s Day from the 1987 Committee
Today we celebrate the strength, leadership and impact of women across our communities and beyond.

Women who lead with courage.
Women who inspire change.
Women who uplift and empower others.
Across politics, public service, business and community life, women continue to shape a more inclusive and equitable future.

The 1987 Committee is proud to stand alongside women who are driving progress and opening doors for the next generation.
Today we celebrate their achievements, their resilience and their leadership.
Happy International Women’s Day to all the incredible women making a difference every day.

Today marks Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, a season of reflection, humility and spiritual renewal for many in our communities.
At the 1987 Committee, we recognise the importance of faith, reflection and service in shaping character and leadership.
May this Lenten season be one of purpose, compassion and intentional growth.

This wasn’t just a fundraising dinner, it was a statement of intent.
The 1987 Committee brought together MPs, councillors, young leaders and community changemakers to support Labour candidates and strengthen pathways into politics for the next generation.

In the room were powerful conversations about social justice, equity, representation and civic responsibility and a shared commitment to backing those who will lead with integrity and lived experience.
This is how change happens.
By building networks.
By investing in people.
By creating access where there was once exclusion.
Let’s support our candidates at the local elections in anyway possible for them to be elected or re-elected at the upcoming elections in May. If you care about grassroots politics and care about youth voice, fair representation and a politics that truly reflects our communities, come and join us.
Thank you always Dawn Butler David Burton-Sampson MP & Amanda Martin MP for showing up for the Committee, the candidates and the youth. Your support matters!

What an incredible evening for the 1987 Committee!
We brought together MPs, councillors, local Labour candidates, youth leaders and community partners for an inspiring fundraising dinner focused on strengthening grassroots political leadership.

Thank you to every MP and speaker who gave their time to support emerging candidates ahead of the local elections. Your encouragement and visibility means more than you know.
To the young people and community leaders in the room, your engagement and questions reminded us exactly why this work matters.

The 1987 Committee is committed to building leadership pathways, supporting candidates and ensuring representation is not accidental but intentional.
We look forward to being out on the ground supporting candidates in the coming weeks.
