Snapping the Stiletto

The GO4 Cafe is proud to support the Snapping the Stiletto campaign as an ambassador. This innovative project aims to redefine and showcase the diverse experiences of women living in Essex today. By collecting and preserving the stories of underrepresented communities including women of different ethnicities, LGBTQ+ individuals, working-class women, and women with additional needs and disabilities, the campaign celebrates the rich heritage of women in the county. Join us in supporting Snapping the Stiletto and help celebrate the amazing women in our community. Donate your story and objects that hold special significance to you to contribute to preserving and sharing the rich history of women in Essex.
