International Women's Day, from The Anchor in Stanwell Moor
International Women's Day falls on 8 March every year. We wrote this for the 2023 day, to say what it is and why it matters to us. Our tagline is "Where Everyone's Welcome", and we mean it.
What is International Women's Day?
March 8th is a special day for women around the world. It's a day when we celebrate the achievements of women and the progress we've made towards gender equality. International Women's Day (IWD) is a global observance that has been recognised for over 100 years, and it continues to grow in significance and importance.
Why Celebrate International Women's Day?
International Women's Day is a time to reflect on the achievements of women and to raise awareness about the ongoing struggles for gender equality. Women have made significant contributions to society in all fields of life, from science and technology to arts and politics. They have fought for their rights and paved the way for future generations to live in a more equal world. However, there is still a long way to go before gender equality is achieved.

Is Anything On at The Anchor?
There's no Women's Day event in our diary at the moment. For what's coming up at the pub, see what's on.
You're welcome any day we're open, whether you're on your own, with friends or coming off a shift at the airport. You don't have to drink to sit with us, either: soft drinks, food and just a seat all count.
