For the AHRC-funded network 'Challenging Domesticity in Britain, 1890-1990', the University of Manchester will be hosting a workshop called ‘Activism and The Home’, in collaboration with The Pankhurst Centre on Friday 3 April 2020. Historians and heritage practitioners will be squaring up to the ideas of domesticity, activism and working-class women in 20th century Britain at the event, including the National Trust’s Helen Antrobus and art curator Sophie Dutton. The event will take place at the historic Pankhurst Centre in Manchester from 10am to 4pm and is free to attend for ECRs and PGRs.

The project, organised by Dr Charlotte Wildman and Dr Eloise Moss, is open for attendees to reserve their place. Travel bursaries are available. Email saima.akhtar@manchester.ac.uk to register your place.
