Conservative Women

Membership of the Conservative Women's Organisation gives you access to a range of important benefits including:

CWO nationally runs professional workshops designed to help individual members with their personal and political development and to actively encourage more women to make a difference and stand for public office such as JPs, local Councillors and school Governors Finance.

This is your opportunity to discuss particular issues direct with Conservative MPs and Ministers. Previous topics include: pensions, children and graduate recruitment. Forums are usually held in the House of Commons. For up to date information please visit www.cwoforums.co.uk

We hold a combined Annual Conference & AGM with speakers from both Westminster and the non-political arena.

The Association holds meetings bi-monthly, at 90 Ebury Street, from 11:30 until 13:00 and we have a variety of political and non-political speakers, followed by light refreshments and an opportunity to network.

CWO is proud to be one of the oldest women’s political organisations in the world.

Former members include: the founder of the Suffragette Movement, Emmeline Pankhurst; the first female sitting MP, Lady Astor; the first female Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher; and the first Muslim female Cabinet Minister, Baroness Sayeeda Warsi.
