Everyone at #Emilymatters stand Shoulder to Shoulder with the original suffragette city, where Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughters founded the WSPU in 1903.
Mary Leigh, a Manchester suffragette and close friend of suffragette Emily Davison, features in To Freedom’s Cause. Great city. Great people.
#Emilymatters is a social media campaign to support and advance gender equality, particularly focusing on the importance of voting. Join our #loveyourvote campaign, because democracy works better when more of us have a say.
Help us do Emily Davison and her sister suffragettes proud by encouraging more women & young people to have their say at the Ballot Box on 8th June.
Drawing on the experience of Emily Davison we use drama and creativity we help to empower women and young people to use their voice and to be heard.
If you would like to find out more about our current campaign and new developments for 2018, please sign up to our #loveyourvote newsletter.
Manchester has been simply magnificent in the face of such hatred, responding together, with Love.
