Weekend of discovery and education
The Island's unique feminist heritage will be discussed in a talk this evening (Fri).
Dr Helen Pankhurst is the great-granddaughter of revolutionary English suffragette Emmeline - who's own mother Sophia Goulden hailed from Lonan.
She's here for the first time for a weekend of discovery and education, meeting Island schoolchildren, politicians and the charity keeping Sophia's legacy alive in the Island.
An activist and womens' writer herself, Dr Pankhurst says the Manx people have a special attentiveness to the cause:
Liverpool ferry terminal won't be open in time for TT
Road closures in place as Manx Rally gets underway
Fine for Glen Vine man after paramedic assault
Early Mad Sunday Liverpool sailings moved to Heysham
Changes to TT parking provision
Surge in people on gas payment plans sparks fears of possible hike in tariffs
