Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
A fundamental aspect of UOEWFC is our commitment to being and inclusive and welcoming environment for all of our members.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Every year we host a number of events dedicated to raising money in support of breast cancer research! This year we raised £421 at our tournament, social, and bakesale, bringing our total to nearly £3000 in the club's history.
