International Women’s Day 2016

2020-06-16T14:59:04+00:00

We are currently organising an event to coincide with International Women's Day on 8th March 2016. Women were very important to the running of Belfast Poor House, whether it was Mrs Corruthers, who was a Superintendent or Mary Anne McCracken who was a member of the Ladies Committee. The women who came to the House as residents or to work at the House were vital and made exceptional contributions to the welfare of all the residents especially the children. Our event will take a look at some of the women who played their role in the running of Belfast Poor House.
