We welcome back Jess Jenkins to talk about Elizabeth Heyrick. Elizabeth was a humble Quaker of Leicester who dared to stand up to all in her pursuit of justice. Renowned as an anti-slavery campaigner, and active in social reform and animal rights, her powerful writings were hugely influential at home and abroad. Only now is she beginning to receive the recognition which she deserves.
