Sarah Doig presents a potpourri of tales about some of the county’s famous and not so well-known women, all of whom achieved great things in their chosen fields including art, poetry and charity work. Sarah explores the fascinating lives of our county’s suffragettes, including Sophia Duleep Singh. She also dips into the life of Norah Lofts who drew inspiration from Suffolk’s rich history for her writing. Also included are the stories of the Elizabethan surgeon and herbalist Catherine Tollemache, the amazing ‘Human Arro’ Pansy Chinery and many more of our county’s heroines. 

The talk lasts approximately 75 minutes.
