Invitation to a Social Gathering of the WSPU

Title: Invitation to a Social Gathering of the WSPU
Description: This flyer, issued by the National Union of Women’s Suffrage Societies (NUWSS), advertises the Women’s Suffrage Pilgrimage of July 26th, 1913. Organised by constitutional suffragists under the leadership of Mrs. Henry Fawcett, the march brought women from across England and Wales to London, converging in Hyde Park for a mass demonstration. Unlike the militant tactics of the suffragettes, the NUWSS emphasised law-abiding, peaceful protest to prove widespread public support for women’s enfranchisement. The flyer calls for participation, hospitality, and crucially funds, embodying the collective effort and determination behind the campaign for political equality.
