The women's peace camp is hosting one of the six gates as a women-only space and call on women to join us. The Women in Black network and the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom have added their support and their names to the women's gate event.

The other five gates are mixed gender and all have different themes (see  http://www.cnduk.org/aldermaston for general details, including coach transport from across the country).

There is an amazing tradition of radical women's activism in the peace/anti-nuke/antimilitarist movements and beyond. This event is a great opportunity for women to come together, make a show of strength and solidarity, and shout loud and clear "the bomb stops here!".

The women's gate will have a sound system, food, random entertainments (more women artistes very welcome) and a mass knicker-related action (yes, you heard right. So laydeez, bring your spare pants, the bigger the better!).

Children welcome - there is a safe, enclosed space for them to charge about in.

Breaking news on the event as a whole is that wheelchair accessible floorspace accommodation (mixed gender) is available in Reading for the night before and the night of Easter Monday itself (ie 23 and 24 March). Organisers are asking people to register in order to guarantee a space. Drop an email to  sleep@aldermaston2008.org.uk with name, email, what night you want etc and they send you a map and details of where you are staying.
