Global Day 2021
What are we doing on this Global Day?
This year we are coming together on Saturday 27 November, marking it by wearing a purple scarf (scarf available from our online shop).
We will gather, where possible, for a three-minute silence at 1.03pm (linking to the 1 in 3 theme). We want to make this as big as we can, combining the voices of our four million members around the world – calling for action on an international scale and in the countries where we live. Please see our advice resource for more guidance on holding your Global Day Event for 2021.
We suggest three levels:
Big
We hope this event will be held at cathedrals in at least 15 dioceses across Britain and Ireland, with as many members as possible, plus clergy and other local high-profile individuals.
Local
Get together at a local level, perhaps in your branch or deanery, or ask other local groups to get involved.
Home
If you can’t join an outside event, why not join in fellowship with those from your own home?
When holding a group event, try standing in a line or circle, with every third person placing the purple scarf over their mouth or eyes, as a symbol of 1 in 3 women affected by violence. You can also be creative and think of your own ideas.
