Independent Women: Get the news through a female lens with Victoria Richards’ weekly newsletter

Every week brings a new set of stories about women – some uplifting, some infuriating, some that make you stop and think. The Independent Women newsletter is here to help make sense of it all.

I’m Victoria Richards, and each Thursday morning I’ll bring you a warm, insightful look at the week’s biggest talking points – the issues shaping women’s lives, the debates sparking conversation, and the moments that remind us what really matters.

With my newsletter you’ll get a thoughtful take on the stories behind the headlines, a space for reflection and perspective, and, yes, a little bit of light relief too.

Each edition features your views – the thoughts and experiences shared by Independent Women readers.

There’s also a weekly poll, the chance to join our (free!) monthly book club; TV, film and music recommendations and signposts to the best reads and the watercooler moments you don’t want to miss.
