Ethel McDonald Saturday 5th May 2007 - 4pm @ Seomra Spraoi This drama-documentary tells the story of Ethel MacDonald. A forgotten legend, her story ranks alongside the courage of 'La Pasionaria' and the legendary 'Odette'. Whilst both these women sustained world-wide recognition, our Scots heroine dwindled into obscurity and remains forgotten to this day. |

Leaving home at sixteen she became active in women’s movements and the rights of the working class. From an early age Ethel was an active socialist, still only sixteen she joined the Bellshill, Independent Labour Party, (ILP). She worked as waitress and shop assistant, in 1931 she came in contact with Guy Aldred who asked her to become his secretary.
