My dept is also going through the Athena Swan process, for the same reasons although I think we've had a lot more lead time on this. I am not on the committee, but my co-worker is - if you want to know more about how it actually works, I could put you in touch? I'm not sure how applicable our experiences will be, but it seems like it's not a vast amount of effort although it is kinda dragging on. A childfree perspective seems valuable - I think the big problem with the lack of women in senior positions is the break to have children, but it's not the only problem, and I think it's an issue that women of childbearing age could be discriminated against whether they intend to have kids or not.
