Jennie Kiff is a professional archivist, historian and a heritage consultant who has contributed to a number of projects in Bradford and beyond. She has given talks at various conferences and seminars across the country, as well as talks to historical societies. In addition, she has undertaken research for local community projects and worked as a tutor of the WEA. As part of her professional work as an archivist she has appeared on “Who Do You Think You Are?”. Jennie has just completed her PhD at the University of Lincoln and her research has rediscovered a previously invisible army of suffragettes in Bradford.

Their stories and experiences provide an insight into the grassroots activism of local women and their fight for the vote.
