For #EYAInclusion, we’ve been looking at the records of Queen Margaret College, a higher education institution for women that joined with the University of Glasgow in 1892. The records are a fascinating resource for anyone interested in the history of women’s education in Scotland.

Mary Barbour and Isabella Elder mural by @scotsuffragette.bsky.social in the Govan area of Glasgow. The quote at the top is as relevant today as it was over a century ago when these two women, each in their own way, were striving to improve the lives of those around them.

Delighted to have another one of our murals featured by @thisismyglasgow.bsky.social
This series around Govan - Isabella Elder, Helen Crawfurd and the Suffrage Oak - was commissioned by Yardworks Glasgow and we co-created the designs with local community groups of all ages 🥰
A mural of Isabella Elder on a junction box on Elderpark on Glasgow. Created by @scotsuffragettes.bsky.social, it celebrates the life of a woman who did an amazing amount for the people of Govan and Glasgow.

A beautifully written tribute by @sorchadallas.bsky.social for the incredible Elspeth King-- a true champion of Scottish Radical histories, including women's histories and the untold stories of Scottish Suffrage.
Our Custodian, @sorchadallas.bsky.social has written an obituary for Elspeth King in The Guardian.

👋Thnx for sharing our new mural!🤩🎨

We’re big fans of the mighty Helen Crawfurd & her work as a RentStriker & Suffragette.

(As creators tho, we’d prefer 2b credited IN THE POST w/ the image— I’m sure u’d feel the same, as a creator of fab images yerself?)

If u’ve room for # - u can fit our @🦋
