Celebrations and Events take place to mark the Centenary of Women's Suffrage and National Democracy Week

Last week a number of events were held throughout Bracknell Forest to celebrate the centenary of women getting the vote and the first National Democracy Week.

The Suffrage Flag was raised across the Borough including at the Morgan Centre in Crowthorne, Time Square Council Offices by Bracknell Forest Council and at Brooke House by Bracknell Town Council. This was part of a national suffrage flag relay where departments and agencies across government have flown the flag and hosted wider events to celebrate the centenary.

Councillors also visited Wildmoor Heath Primary School in Crowthorne and Uplands Primary School in Sandhurst to talk about Women's Suffrage, democracy and fairness. Children learnt about the suffrage moment, took part in a mock ballot and discussed what fairness meant to them. They were also given a gift of a commemorative pin badge to celebrate the occasion.

This year marks 100 years since the Representation of the People Act 1918. The act gave women over 30 who owned property the right to vote, and eventually led to women getting full suffrage in 1928. The act also allowed men over the age of 21 to vote.

Further events will be taking place throughout the year including the siting of a permanent commemorative plaque in Crowthorne and Bracknell Town, a celebratory Tea Party at The Elms, visits to parliament for local schools and visits from local lecturers to Edgbarrow School on the impact of WW1 on the Suffrage Movement.

The events were held in conjunction with Bracknell Forest Council and the Women's Vote Centenary Grant Fund.
