Women of WWII

The unsung heroes of WWII

Fascism threatens collapse! With the men called up and the German army poised across the Channel, Britain’s survival hinges on its women.

Since the Great War, British women have systematically dismantled old assumptions - they are in the workplace, on the playing fields and at the ballot box. The world has changed, and with war declared, they are more than ready to meet the crisis.

Ready after decades of social change, they embody Keep Calm and Carry On, taking over vital roles: running transport, feeding the nation, code-breaking and espionage. Our actor-led workshop lets children explore the essential, game-changing contributions of these impressive women, whose actions secured the victory and preserved our freedom.
