Dr Jane Fenton-May (Membership Officer & Treasurer) is a retired doctor. Jane's interest in women's equality began upon discovering that the school she attended did not teach sciences or encourage girls to go to university. Undeterred, she became a GP and became involved with medical politics through the Medical Women's Federation, the BMA and The Royal College of GPs.
