'Women have won their political independence. Now is the time for them to achieve
their economic freedom too.' This was the great rallying cry of the pioneers who,
in 1919, created the Women's Engineering Society. Spearheaded by Katharine and Rachel
Parsons, a powerful mother and daughter duo, and Caroline Haslett, whose mission was
to liberate women from domestic drudgery, it was the world's first professional organisation
dedicated to the campaign for women's rights
