Conversations of Inspiration with Helen Pankhurst CBE 💪

Inspired by the suffragettes and suffragists, Helen Pankhurst CBE, great-granddaughter of Emmeline Pankhurst, established @centenaryactiongroup in 2018 to mark the centenary of some women getting the right to vote 🗳️ and to drive action towards a gender-equal parliament by 2028 💪
This cross-party campaigning force is on a mission to ensure that women’s voices are heard 📣
And with the upcoming election it felt like the perfect time for us all to learn about the power of the female vote!
Helen shares intimate stories from her extraordinary heritage, offering a unique glimpse into the lives and struggles of her pioneering ancestors, and dives into how their legacy has shaped her path in activism and the advancement of women’s rights in the 21st century.
Helen speaks about the current landscape of feminism, the progress since the suffragette era, and the challenges ahead. We also explore how movements like #MeToo and Just Stop Oil will be judged by future generations.
Whether you’re passionate about women's rights, intrigued by historical legacies, or looking for inspiration to make a difference, this conversation with Helen Pankhurst is a must-listen.
