- ‘The Garrett family on Aldeburgh Council’ by Richard Marson.
- ‘Shake the Chains’ concert at Snape Maltings
- ‘Millicent Garrett-Fawcett; the sexual politics of a suffragist’ by Janet Howarth*.
- Exhibitions at the The Long shop Museum, Leiston, Aldeburgh Moot Hall Museum
- ‘The Life of Elizabeth Garrett Anderson’ by Diana Quick
- ‘Make More Noise’ – An 80 minute BFI compilation of silent films about the contemporary portrayal of suffragettes
- Promenade play: ‘A Woman of Purpose’
