First 100 Years

First 100 Years

The First 100 Years is a ground-breaking history project, supported by the Law Society and the Bar Council, charting the journey of women in law since 1919. As part of the project work is under way to produce a new digital museum made up of 100 video stories that tell the story of women in law. The digital museum will be donated to the British Library in 2019.

The First 100 Years website includes a timeline marking the key landmarks of the journey of women in law since 1919 and individual posts that tell the stories of some of these women (with some incredible archival photographs).
