1 More than fifty walkers turned up today to watch the opening episode of Oxygen and to walk in the footsteps of their Suffragette sisters marking the Great Suffrage Pilgrimage of 1913. That was so brilliant! The play was inspiring and moving and then the walk started, led by the actors, singing songs from the play. What a day!
2 The children and I only walked at the start and then waved everyone off (There will be more photos very soon from the walkers themselves) We took the children to play in the sand at Mount’s Bay……

3 …….. and finished off the day with a delicious Cornish ice-cream, thinking all the afternoon of those of my dear friends walking the trail at the same time as those amazing women walked exactly 100 years ago today. The Suffragettes in 1913 walked for themselves and for those who couldn’t and that’s what my people did for me today. Thank you.
