Celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month with us at Pontypridd Town Council.
March is a time to celebrate the achievements of women the world over. On March 8th International Women’s Day is marked globally and women’s history is remembered and promoted all month long.
On Saturday, March 19th join us in the new Community Hub at Pontypridd Museum to commemorate local trailblazer, pioneering writer and evolutionary theorist Elaine Morgan and to hear from Pontypridd’s first ever female MP, Alex Davies-Jones.
The event will begin at 10.15am and refreshments will be served.
The morning will begin with tea and coffee and a welcome to Pontypridd Town Council’s new Community Hub in the basement of Pontypridd Museum by Councillor Jayne Brencher.
Alex Davies-Jones MP will be speaking to us about her experiences as a young, female MP and the causes close to her heart, including her campaigns on issues around fertility and women’s safety.
Elaine Morgan’s biographer, Dr Daryl Leeworthy will give a talk on ‘Elaine Morgan and her Times.’ Dr Leeworthy will touch on his biography, ‘Elaine Morgan, A Life Behind the Screen,’ published in 2020 and his latest work, ‘Causes in Common, Welsh women and the Struggle for Social Democracy,’ published later this spring.
There will be a chance to ask questions and for us to discuss the issues raised before enjoying tea, coffee and cake.
See you there!
