An event with talks to celebrate women in Somers Town. It’s a 100 year anniversary since women got the vote. Somers Town women played a key role – think of Irene Barclay, Edith Neville and Monica Shaw, and countless unsung local women who were midwives and worked to build community – hear about that at this evening event.
