Susan Moffat kindly handing over the Gude Cause banner to our archivist, Hannah Little.

This banner was made by a group of women to be carried during the ‘Gude Cause’ march in October 2009. The march was organised to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Edinburgh Women’s Suffrage Procession. A group of women from GWL was also involved in the Gude Cause march – you can read more about their experiences on the blog.
