In tribute to this truly courageous and innovative medical pioneer, ‘Previously…Scotland’s History Festival’ has declared November 26, 2017 ‘Elsie Inglis Day’ and will be hosting a series of walks, talks and discussions around the life and times of this great woman of science.

Times and venues of the events are to be confirmed, but these are a few of the events we are looking forward to:

Walk the women of science tour
Tour the Dean Cemetery to see not just the last resting place of a truly great Scottish woman, but discover the graves of many other wonderful Scots.
Discover who inspired this great woman – and who did she go onto inspire?
Fatally Femme? The woman who championed improved health care for women would be astonished at the progress made today. Or would she? Come and join us to debate healthcare issues that still affect women 100 years after Dr Inglis death.
