Embark on a self-guided exploration of London’s Holborn district, centered around the history of the radical suffragette movement.
Your journey starts in 1906, highlighting when Emmeline Pankhurst relocated to London. She, as a founder of a women’s rights group, was frustrated with the secondary role women were given in society.
Granting a fresh start to the stagnant women’s rights movement in the UK for over four decades, the novel group implemented aggressive tactics like protests, arson, and bombings, shaking the status quo.
Roam around Holborn, the nerve center of the London suffragette movement, with the aid of a convenient app that serves as your guide, outfitted with a map, GPS, and an auditory guide to ensure you’re on the right track.
Delve into striking vintage images and soak in the narrative as you navigate between crucial historical sites. Witness firsthand the reality of the suffragettes and the ripple effect of their actions on women’s rights.
