About this listen

 Dive into the inspiring life of Dr. Elsie Inglis, a Scottish physician and pioneering suffragist. Not only did she establish a maternity hospital in Edinburgh, generously offering free care to those who couldnt afford it, but she also played a pivotal role in Scotlands Womens Suffrage Movement. Her most renowned achievement was the creation of the Scottish Womens Hospitals for Foreign Service, an organization that sent all-female staffed field hospitals to war-torn regions during World War I. Join us as we illuminate the path of this remarkable woman, as told by Ciufi Galeazzi.
