EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image showcases the W.S.P.U Hunger Strike Medal presented to Grace Chappelow (1884-1971), a prominent Suffragette activist during the early 20th century. The medal, issued by the Women's Social and Political Union (W.S.P.U), bears two bars, symbolizing Chappelow's two imprisonments during her tireless fight for women's suffrage. The first imprisonment took place on September 4th, 1909, following her participation in the Deputation Battle on that date. The second imprisonment occurred on March 4th, 1912. Chappelow's arrest at the Deputation Battle on June 29th, 1909, was a pivotal moment in the suffrage movement's history. Hundreds of Suffragettes marched to 10 Downing Street to present a petition to the Prime Minister, demanding the right to vote. Met with resistance from the police, the peaceful protest turned chaotic, resulting in numerous arrests, including Chappelow's. The W.S.P.U Hunger Strike Medal was awarded to those Suffragettes who endured force-feeding during their hunger strikes while in prison. Chappelow's unwavering commitment to the cause led her to undergo this harrowing experience twice. This medal is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and resilience of the Suffragettes in their quest for women's suffrage. Grace Chappelow's story is a testament to the courage and determination of the Suffragette movement, which ultimately led to women's suffrage in the United Kingdom in 1918. This historic artifact serves as a powerful symbol of the struggle for women's rights and the progress made in gender equality.
