Elizabeth Wolstenholme Elmy - The forgotten force behind Women's Rights - Part 2
Welcome listeners to our next episode of Speaking of her! In this episode, our guest speaker, Elle, will continue to talk about the remarkable life and legacy of Elizabeth Wolstenholme Elmy. Elizabeth was a trailblazing feminist and social reformer who played a pivotal role in the fight for women's suffrage and gender equality in Victorian England.
As a recap, in part 1 we spoke some of her significant contributions to women's rights, including education reform and married women's property rights. After years of relentless activism, Elizabeth and her husband went into retirement, but something happened that angered her so much, that she came out of retirement and dived straight back into activism.
In this episode, we'll delve into her fearless fight against the Contagious Diseases Acts - a shocking chapter in history where Elizabeth took a stand for women in the face of injustice. Trust us, this is a wild listen!
