The past is obviously a very important foundation for her, being the great granddaughter of Emmeline Pankhurst and the granddaughter of Sylvia Pankhurst, both well-known Suffragettes, but she is also heavily involved in her role as activist for women’s rights, and for human rights more widely. We were extremely fortunate to have a visit from Dr Helen Pankhurst on Tuesday 3rd December to talk to us about her take on Women’s rights - past, present and future. ![]()
