The Women's Social and Progressive League was a women's organisation and political party founded in Ireland in 1937 by Hanna Sheehy-Skeffington. It was committed to opposing the 1937 constitution of Ireland and any regressive consequences it would entail; the organisation opposed articles 40, 41, and 45 concerning the status of women. Among its most prominent members were Dorothy Macardle,[1] Lorna Reynolds, Mary Hayden, Mary J. Hogan, Mary Macken, Mary S. Kettle and Agnes O'Farrelly.[2] [3]
The party ran candidates in the 1938 Irish general election as well as the 1943 Irish general election.[1]
