From the occupied streets of Belgium to the forests and mountains of Poland and Yugoslavia, women risked everything during both World Wars, yet their contribution is often overlooked. Dr Goss uncovers their hidden histories - from couriers and saboteurs in the First World War to agents, partisans, and spies in the Second - and reveals how ordinary women carried out extraordinary acts of defiance that shaped resistance movements across Europe and beyond. Through their remarkable stories, we learn how these unlikely heroines fought back not only with weapons, but with courage, intelligence, and conviction. Free event, booking required. Friday 20 March 11.00am – 12.15noon Richmond Library Annexe Quadrant Road Richmond TW9 1DH
