The GUDE CAUSE march in Edinburgh
On Saturday 10th October 2009 it marked the 100th anniversary of the Women's Suffrage Procession in Edinburgh. Hundreds of women dressed in Green, White, and Violet the colours of the suffragette movement, took part in the procession with colourful displays, music, floats and banners, marching for women's right to vote. Thousands more turned out to cheer them on.

I would like to add my thanks to Helen and Morag for all the hard work that they put in to making the two days a great success, to all the members of the regional womens committees who gave up their time to attend. Also to the Scottish Women's Regional Committee and the branches in scotland for their very generous donations towards the social taht was held on the Friday night.
