International Women’s Day Talk 2026 by Sundeep Braich
Join us at Erasmus Darwin House to celebrate the remarkable life and legacy of Elizabeth Garrett Anderson (1836–1917) — the first woman to qualify as a doctor in Britain, and a pioneer who transformed the future of women in medicine.
“When I felt rather overcome with my father’s opposition, I said as firmly as I could, that I must have this or something else — that I could not live without some real work.”
— Elizabeth Garrett Anderson
