I support End Sexism in Schools because ensuring gender equality in education is crucially important.
A non-sexist curriculum, that reflects the experiences of both males and females, will help ensure all students, regardless of their gender, learn in a fair environment, and are taught vital life skills without bias.
Louise Morrish is an author and librarian from Hampshire. She writes stories inspired by the lives of women in the past, who achieved extraordinary things, but whom history has forgotten.
Her debut novel, Operation Moonlight, was published in 2022 and features female secret agents from World War 2. Operation Moonlight won the Penguin Random House First Novel competition.
Her second novel, Women of War, was published in 2025, and is inspired by the true lives of pioneering female doctors in the First World War. Her third novel, The Library of War and Peace, will be published in 2026.
Inspired by revolutionary female librarians in the First World War, the novel explores the historic role of books and reading in the healing of mental trauma.
