Songbook
A songbook has been produced to commemorate this year and bring together songs old and new which tell stories of women’s lives over the past century. The emphasis will be on Scottish songs but will include some from other parts of the world.
The songbook costs £5 (plus postage) If you would like a copy of the songbook please email us or pop into the Peace and Justice Centre and pick one up.
