Sculpture will feature daughter Emmeline
Plans for the first Manx female statue will include not one, but two women.
Designs for the Sophia Goulden figure in Laxey set to become the first of its kind on the Island, will also include her daughter.
It has been revealed Suffolk-based artist Sean Hedges-Quinn, will incorporate women's suffrage icon Emmeline Pankhurst as a child into the sculpture.
Mrs Goulden is responsible for taking her then 14-year-old daughter to her first women's suffrage meeting, from which she became a 'committed suffragist.'
The charity behind the project has a target of £70,000 and has currently raised £7,500.
