LONDON: The founders of Britain´s first club for businesswomen defended their decision to appoint a chairman after criticism from some gender rights activists, saying men needed to be “part of the solution”.

Members include the tech entrepreneur Martha Lane-Fox and actresses Naomie Harris and Ruth Wilson. “AllBright is all about celebrating and championing women, but it´s also about bringing enlightened men on the journey with us,” said founders Debbie Wosskow and Anna Jones said.
