The Mayor’s #BehindEveryGreatCity campaign celebrates 100 years since the first women won the right to vote in the UK. Women are behind some of the greatest achievements and discoveries in London, in the past and the present.

We want to shine a spotlight on these women and their achievements, and are asking Londoner to nominate women they feel need to recognised by the campaign. This could be any woman who was either born in London, or worked or campaigned here.

Every week, one of these Hidden Credits is featured on the Mayor’s Instagram and on the Telegraph online.

Thank you for all the nominations we’ve received so far!

She was the co-founder of the first hospital staffed by women, the first dean of a British medical school, the first female doctor of medicine in France, the first woman in Britain to be elected to a school board and, as Mayor of Aldeburgh, the first female mayor and magistrate in Britain."
