100 women runners, including myself, will be running shoulder-to-shoulder during the Greater Manchester Run on 20 May... 1 woman for each year (some) women have had the right to vote!

 We are helping to raise funds & share the message of the Pankhurst Centre – which houses the UK’s only museum dedicated to the suffrage movement as well as Manchester Women’s Aid .

The Women’s Social and Political Union was founded in the former home of Emmeline Pankhurst at 60-62 Nelson Street, Manchester, now The Pankhurst Centre. This is the real building where a historical event happened that defined a pivotal change in our ideas of citizenship. Emmeline was a single parent at the time, she had a part-time job, and she started a revolutionary movement. This is an inspirational story that needs to be told, yet the Museum is currently staffed by volunteers and receives no public funding, instead relying on donations.
