The Suffragette Fellowship was an organization founded in 1926 by Edith How-Martyn with the purpose of preserving the memory of the women's suffrage movement in the United Kingdom, particularly the militant campaign led by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) between 1905 and 1914. The Fellowship aimed to ensure that the history and contributions of suffragettes remained recognized and celebrated.
