Thank you to all those who presented and attended!

Monumental Welsh Women Monumental Welsh Women is a not for profit organisation dedicated to recognising the contribution of welsh women (hidden heroines) to the history and life of Wales

Until September 2021, there wasn’t a single statue of a real Welsh woman in Wales!
Monumental Welsh Women have worked to change this by commissioning 5 statues of 5 real Welsh women.
You can read more about their work here: monumentalwelshwomen.com

Donate to The Statue for Elizabeth Andrews Group, Hirwaun., organized by Helen Molyneux The Statue for Elizabeth Andrews Group in Hirwaun is working with Monu… Helen Molyneux needs your support for The Statue for Elizabeth Andrews Group, Hirwaun.

Monumental Welsh Women are fundraising for their fifth and final statue which commemorates Elizabeth Andrews and her work which championed social reform and women’s rights (to keep it brief!).

They have £25,000 left to raise, if able, please donate here: www.gofundme.com/f/the-statue...
