Newnham and Bletchley Park: Women’s Work in World War II

An exhibition unveiled earlier this year revealed the hidden stories of a large number of women from Newnham College, Cambridge, who were quietly recruited for secret work at Bletchley Park in World War II. In this talk Dr Sally Waugh, one of the three curators of the exhibition, will discuss how research identified the women involved, describe some of the women and the work that they did, and consider the impact on the private lives of this group of previously unrecognized women.

This event takes place on Zoom. The link to join will use sent to our mailing list the day before the talk.
