Join us at Elden Street Tea Shop for an enlightening presentation that explores the significant impact of tea on women's history. Led by our knowledgeable employee, Susan Baime, this event will delve into the empowering stories of women who have been pivotal in shaping history, much like tea itself—often underestimated until put into hot water.
Discover the intriguing roles women played in the evolution of tea rooms as spaces of independence and social change. These establishments not only served as pivotal meeting points for discussions and planning but also as platforms for women to express themselves economically and socially during times when their voices were often suppressed.
Your attendance supports not only our local heritage but also contributes to the ongoing remembrance of the suffragists, with proceeds benefiting the Turning Point Suffragist Memorial. Enjoy a cup of our finest brew as you immerse yourself in the untold stories of women's resilience and creativity.
Seats are limited, so reserve your spot today and be part of a discussion that promises to be as rich and invigorating as the tea itself!
