The England: Suffragists and Suffragettes Project is a topic of the England Project.
Click here for the England Project Topics Team
The principal purpose of this topic is to record the lives of the English women and men who were involved in the campaign for women's suffrage in the United Kingdom.
The distinction between suffragists and suffragettes was their attitude towards direct action and civil disobedience. Suffragists did not support such action, believing that it would damage the cause.
Several member-organisations were formed, particularly the National Society for Women's Suffrage (NSWS), and later the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) for those who were prepared to take direct action.
Leader: TBD
