A new public database recording the number of female statues in the UK has been launched, in the hope of addressing the gender imbalance in civic monuments.
Campaign group the Public Sculptures and Statues Association (PSSA) has so far recorded 100 sculptures and busts of “real-life women”, but is calling on the public to help it track as many as possible.
Its co-chair Joanna Barnes told the PA news agency the database is important “because we need all the facts in one place”.

Not Enough Women: Feminists Oppose Statues Honouring War Heroes

19 Feb 2021
Feminists have denounced proposals to honour war heroes who won the Victoria Cross and George Cross with hometown statues because not enough of them are women.
Awarded, often posthumously, for the “most conspicuous bravery, or some daring or pre-eminent act of valour or self-sacrifice, or extreme devotion to duty in the presence of the enemy”, each Victoria Cross is struck from bronze taken from captured enemy guns, and it is regarded as the highest military honour in the United Kingdom and Commonwealth. So rarely is the medal given, there are just nine living recipients of them worldwide.
The George Cross is considered the VC’s equal in merit, and is awarded for similarly outstanding gallantry not in the face of the enemy, often to civilians. Famously the Queen’s father, George VI, collectively bestowed the honour upon the island of Malta for the heroism of its population while besieged by the Axis powers during the Second World War, and the island nation’s flag bears that cross to this day.
