Suffragettes, Significant Women and Manchester
In 1905, the Suffragettes raised their first ‘Votes for Women’ banner at Manchester’s Free Trade Hall—one of many pivotal moments in the fight for equality explored on this guided tour.
From the Pankhursts to Lydia Becker and Annie Kenney, this walk visits key sites where remarkable women fought for representation. Emmeline Pankhurst, founder of the WSPU, takes centre stage, with her Manchester statue among the many stops that bring the city’s powerful Suffragette story to life.
