Posters:
Words And Women has produced a series of four posters
celebrating Millicent Garrett Fawcett, Miriam Pratt, Annie Reeves and Princess Sophia Duleep Singh who were women from the Eastern Region involved in suffragist and suffragette activities at the turn of the last century. Their deeds and words helped bring about the passing of the 1918 Representation of the People Act, which gave the vote to some women for the first time in Britain. The posters have been designed by Vicki Johnson with funding from Norwich City Council. Words And Women will be putting these posters up in Norwich and around the region during July. Currently the posters are on display in the following places:
