Iron Ladies is the untold story of working-class women who, during the 1984–85 Miners’ Strike, found themselves at the forefront of a battle for their communities. From Scotland down to Kent, women from the coalfields shed light on their experiences of the year long struggle, and how they became the backbone of the Strike. With many still active today, their actions reshaped the landscape of political activism for working-class women. The film is showing on 31st October and 6th November, with 6th followed by a special Q&A with film contributors Kate Alvey and Janet Cunningham, with author Hilary Cave. The film is a 12A.
