"This handbook aims to give information about services and facilities in London which women might use. It covers services and facilities which borough councils, government departments, community projects, local groups, charities and women's projects provide. The Handbook is the first of its kind. It looks at many of the issues facing women living and working in this enormous and varied city and then draws together all the places women can go to get more information and advice, to take action or to take part in organisations which are working in London" -- from introduction on page 5.
