From exclusion in 1832 to limited franchise in 1918, Helen explores the journey towards citizenship for women, ending with a light hearted look at the first election in Preston when some women could finally cast a vote.Everyone knows the name Edith Rigby because her niece, Phoebe Hesketh, wrote the Book 'My Aunt Edith'. Her courage and determination was shared by many other Preston who are often forgotten. Helen is also leading two Preston Suffragette walks on 16 June and 4 August.
