Jane, Anne and Ellen Cobden were the daughters of the 19th century radical statesman Richard Cobden. They became prominent British political activists, suffragists and philanthropists, leaving a lasting legacy on the early feminist and labour movements. Archivist, Nichola Court, draws on papers from the Cobden archive to provide insight into their lives and politics. Join us in person or online for this special talk. Advance booking essential.
