To mark International Women’s Day 2022 – which falls on Tuesday 08 March – the IHW Athena Swan wellbeing of older workers group is inviting staff and students to let us know about any female authors or books by women (fiction, non-fiction, poetry, even a blog or electronic resource) that they would recommend to others – that have inspired them, entertained them, made them think or had a lasting impact.
