Women who have worked and juggled childcare are being abandoned during the Covid outbreak! cOmpanies are rejecting women’s rights to furlough. When we have a epidemic on our hands and schools are closed. Why are we suffering with extra stress and anxiety to keep a roof over our our heads.

This is 2021 and within the space of a year women have been made to feel like we have just returned to the 1940s
