About Me

Female Trouble is a group of like-minded feisty females from Manchester, UK. Inspired by our favourite grrrl discos and distros, we plan to host fundraisers for female-focused charities and host some amazing gigs and club nights. We want to be the girls with the most cake and it all kicked off in December 2006 with a fabulous festive extravaganza!

Wanna get involved? Join our discussion list to find out about our regular meetings and how to become actively involved in our projects. If you just want to find out about amazing events we're putting on and other things of interest in Manchester please email us with "put me on the mailing list!" in the subject line!
