In the UK, 81% of housework is still done by women, something which really surprises me in a modern society. There appears to be a huge gender imbalance in domestic chores, despite the fact that many women work full time, whilst raising children. And whilst we have made great strides forward in equal rights, housework is an area where there is still a huge distance to travel. According to the OECD, “female partners spend twice as much time on housework than men”.
For that reason, I am supporting Indesit in their campaign, #DoItTogether, to raise awareness of this gender imbalance, and encourage families to split the chores more fairly. It is so important to break down the idea that some jobs belong to certain people in the household, be that male or female, and doing so would be a crucial step towards true equality.
To support the #DoItTogether campaign Indesit are giving one lucky reader the chance to win an Innex Washing Machine worth £379.99, featuring the Push & Wash programme. With a 10kg capacity and 1600rpm, a 45 minute stain removal cycle, and the option to schedule a wash up to 24 hours into the future, it’s perfect for busy families!
To enter simply follow the link below and one lucky winner will be chosen at random and notified via email at close of competition on Sunday 15th July. Terms & Conditions apply. ** Good Luck!
