Today, International Women’s Day, saw  a blue plaque to Helena Brownsword Dowson installed at the Justice Centre in Nottingham. The theme of this years IWD is ‘challenge’

I recently took delivery of  the plaque to be installed at the Justice Centre in Nottingham to celebrate Helena B Dowson’s many achievements.

On 20th July 2020, 100 years to the day that the first three women Magistrates were appointed in Nottingham, an information board style plaque was installed at the Justice Centre.

NWHG  were very pleased to work with many other women’s organisations and the City Council, led by Councillor Rebecca Langton, to plan a celebratory event on International Women’s Day 8th March 2020.
