Now, the Gosport MP is urging women in the town to get behind the suffragette celebrations.
Ms Dinenage said: ‘It is important to mark this historic event, to see how far women’s rights have progressed within 100 years. I am incredibly proud that women are increasingly represented in politics at every level.
‘This event provides an opportunity to join the festivities – to not only celebrate the women of the past, but also how far we have come and what we have achieved.’
