Now halfway through our Edfringe show run. 'Alice' is the most photographed person on the Royal Mile today!

My first visit of the academic year. A really enjoyable school to spend the day with, talking of Alice.

Once again we are grateful to hear Peter Barratt speak about his great grandmother Alice Hawkins and her life as a suffragette in Leicester.

For the next two years, the Leicester market place has relocated next to the statue of great granny Alice Hawkins. A lady on the fruit and veg just pointed to her and said, 'that's are Alice'. Brilliant. Spot on.

Well, today finished on a high, speaking to English Martyrs, Year 8's about Alice and her fight for equality. My 22nd school visit for the calendar year and hopefully more to come!

I joined Peter Barratt & sisters to receive his Honoured Citizen Award from Lord Mayor Cllr Susan Barton at the Town Hall today. Peter’s work promoting his great grandmother Alice Hawkins, & her role within the suffragette movement, has inspired, entertained and educated many👏

Thank you Adam. Without your great support over the years, none of what we have achieved would have been possible.

Am a speaker this evening at a local history society this and have just met Stanley Unwins daughter. Her command of Unwinese is very impressive!!!

There will be a Suffragette line!

Pleased to say that my Edinburgh show this August, 'Alice Hawkins - Working Class Suffragette' has now gone live on the Fringe website, with the first ticket sold! Can't wait for Ruth and I tell the inspiring life story of great granny Alice once again.

Pleased to be visiting Castle Mead Academy once again today, telling the Yr9 scholars the inspiring life story of great granny Alice. As we approach IWD, what better timing.

After many years of speaking proudly of great granny Alice, next Monday evening is the big one. The New Congress Theatre, Eastbourne, largest theatre on the south coast. Ruth and I will be reprising our Edfringe show. Audience around 1,300!

Well, me and Ruth will be returning to the Edinburgh Fringe once again this August with our spoken word show Alice Hawkins - Working Class Suffragette'. Tickets on sale now!

Since centenary year 2018, and with the great support of English Heritage, I have recently completed 100 voluntary school visits to Leicester and county schools. Telling the inspirational story of suffragette great granny Alice. So, use your vote!

So my 20th and final school visit of the academic year, speaking of suffragette great granny Alice's fight for 'the vote' will be July 4th! Booked many months ago, I should have placed a bet on it being election day!

As a state pensioner, I never agreed with receiving the winter fuel allowance whether I needed it or not and gave the payment to my local food bank. State funds should go to those in genuine need and not just to buy votes. I will still make my donation to the food bank each year.

Another year comes around and Alice's inspiring life story at the Edfringe is reaching out to a fresh and enthusiastic audience!

On the Royal Mile flyering just now and Ben Elton stopped by!

After an early start, my first school visit of the academic year, speaking of Alice. With the suffragette movement being the year 6 topic, should be a great day of questions and discussion. Highfield schools have the best lunches too!
