Following the success of our Just Women exhibition, we mark #WomensHistoryMonth by exploring the lives of more inspiring women, many of whom could not be included in our exhibition for reasons of space. Women played an important role in Primitive Methodism, fighting for social justice and helping the movement to grow. However, most were denied their rightful places in Primitive Methodist history; once they were no longer needed they were pushed aside and their record in the written history is scant. Amy Wilkinson continues to return women to the narrative through this Heritage Talk, which accompanies her book Just Women, which is on sale at Englesea Brook.

Amy Wilkinson is Englesea Brook’s Heritage Officer. She studied Classical Literature and History at the University of Leeds before going on to complete her MA Museum Studies at the University of Leicester. She now cares for Englesea Brook’s collection.

The event is free. Everyone is welcome. The Zoom details are:
