Sharing on behalf of Barbara Reid and Lynne Dixon:

Join us to share the stories of remarkable women who have lived in Greenwich in the past. Not just the famous but also the forgotten including activists, scientists, entrepreneurs, as well as writers, mothers and carers.

This community project has discovered dozens of stories of remarkable women. Our enthusiastic volunteers have researched their stories, and will share some of them at this celebration.
