Women's Network International Women's Month Book Club

Join us for Women's Network Book Club! We'll be reading Stronger: Everything I know about Women's Strength by Poorna Bell as part of the University of Birmingham Women's History Month events series.

Exploring both mental and physical empowerment, Stronger is an inspiring blend of memoir and manifesto, shaking off long-held, mistaken ideas about women and strength.

 Stronger will change what you think you know about strength and, most importantly, empower you to go on your own journey to discover what strength looks like for you.

Now a competitive amateur powerlifter who can lift over twice her own bodyweight, Poorna Bell is perfectly placed to start a crucial conversation about women’s strength and fitness, one that has nothing to do with weight loss. In Stronger she challenges the notions taught to us as girls, and examines how all of us can tap into our reservoir of inner strength to make us our strongest selves mentally and physically.

All welcome to this event, even if you haven't had a chance to finish the book!
