October 11, 2024 Capella Rew

Jane Gregory has worked supporting women and girls who have been affected by violence, and has actively campaigned to end violence against women and girls in the UK and internationally for 30 years.

Open Clasp is the North East’s only professional all-female theatre company. It works in collaboration with local women to create pieces informed by their lived experience. It aims to build women’s aspirations and give them a stronger voice within communities and among policy makers, which it does by collaborating with community groups to run issue-based drama workshops with women and girl’s groups.

The company’s approach is needs rather than issue-led: the direction the workshops take are decided by the group working collectively.

Gill has been involved in women’s activism – raising awareness, organising feminist conferences, and setting up the first refuges, rape crisis centres, and incest survivor groups. In 1990 she co-founded the Violence Against Women Research Group (now the Centre for Gender and Violence Research) that pioneered activist-based research and has become one of the world’s largest VAW research centres. She has led awareness-raising projects internationally, produced 120 publications (7 books, 5 practical guides, training manuals and programmes, activist materials & professional papers), and delivered training/awareness-raising for more than 25 years.

Gill has extended her impact internationally. She has researched ‘honour’-based violence in Iraqi Kurdistan, and this research has led to direct awareness-raising work with Kurdish women. She has also worked on transnational projects for raising awareness of VAW with Indian women, and worked on other awareness-raising projects around the world.
