The National Society for Women's Suffrage

The National Society for Women's Suffrage was an organization formed in the late 19th century in the United Kingdom to campaign for women's right to vote. Established in 1867, it sought to raise awareness, gather support, and influence legislation to achieve this goal. The society played a crucial role in uniting various women's suffrage groups, organizing protests, and advocating for political change through peaceful means. Its efforts were significant in the broader women's rights movement, ultimately contributing to the passage of laws that granted women the right to vote, notably achieved in 1918 and 1928 in the UK.
