Welcome to the WEN Wales 100 Welsh Women list, created to mark the contributions of women, past and present who have made brilliant contributions to our national life.
Including the first Welsh female MP, anti- slavery campaigners, poets, medical pioneers, sportswomen, leading business women and many more….
We hope you will be inspired as we are, to share their stories far and wide, so that their achievements and legacies can continue to help us connect, campaign and champion, creating a Wales free from gender discrimination.
