Ethel Leach

I attended the talk by Frank Meeres called Ordinary Women, Extraordinary Lives on Thursday and learned about a number of Norfolk women who had fought for women’s rights.  One of these was Ethel Leach, so I thought a related article would be of interest.  When did she found the Great Yarmouth Women’s Suffrage Society and when was she elected to the Great Yarmouth School Board?  Did you know she became a councillor, an alderman and Great Yarmouth’s first female mayor?  To find out the answers to these questions and more information please select the following link:
