Wren Display: Votes for Women

Votes for Women

March 1912

Emmeline Pethick and Frederick Lawrence (an alumnus of Trinity) were known after their marriage in 1901 as the Pethick-Lawrences. They were committed to the women’s suffrage movement and Emmeline was imprisoned a number of times as a result of her campaigning as a suffragette.

Fred founded the newspaper ‘Votes for Women’ which he co-edited with his wife.
