Come along to hear more about the life of Leeds' most famous suffragette, Leonora Cohen.

Alongside learning about how women eventually got the vote, we will talk about her life before, during, and after the fight for suffrage. There will also be an opportunity to explore items donated by Leonora to Abbey House Museum, and to see her handmade fancy dress on display as part of our temporary exhibition. No previous knowledge or experience is necessary.
