        Histórico

        The National Council of Women of Great Britain was founded in 1895 as the National Union of Women Workers. This resulted from the work of a number of women engaged in the care of girls, who realised that many of the difficulties of these girls arose from unsatisfactory working conditions. They formed themselves into small groups which became the National Union of Women Workers. In 1918 its title was formally changed to the National Council of Women of Great Britain. In 1951 it became an incorporated body governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association.

        The aims of the National Council of Women of Great Britain are defined as:-

        • To promote the establishment and maintenance of human rights for the people of the United Kingdom.
        • To work to improve the quality of life for all.
        • To secure the removal of discrimination against women and to encourage the effective participation of women in the life of the nation.
        • To act as a co-ordinating body to which societies with similar aims may affiliate.
        • To affiliate to the International Council of Women, forming a link with the National Councils of Women throughout the world, and to work for international peace and understanding.

          The National Council of Women is made up of regional councils each with many local branches. Representatives from all over the country attend committees considering all aspects of life. Branches, Regions and Affiliated Societies can put forward resolutions to the annual conference. Resolutions ratified by the annual conference become NCW policy and are presented to Her Majesty's Government and all other local and national relevant bodies.
