Going High - texts by inspirational women

Remember our Going High event  on International Women’s Day this year? We collaborated with Chalk Circle Theatre Company to busk in Norwich’s city centre, using words and not music. The words were from texts by inspirational women. We’ve had a number of requests for the names of the texts and the authors, so here they are with links:
