Can you help remember the 57 (known) convict women who were at Willow Court?
Friends of Willow Court together with Dr Christina Henri plan to have a bonnet for each woman on display at Willow Court during Human Rights Week in December 2019.
If you would like to make a bonnet, or donate $10 to have a bonnet made on your behalf please let FoWC know. And please let others know about this important memorial to the forgotten convict women of Willow Court.

My sister and I would both like to make a bonnet.
We have both produced much needlework over the years and would love to participate to remember convict women and men. I think there is a men’s hat too?
Thanks for your enquiry, I have put a link to the news article below which contains contact details for people that will be able to assist with your wish to assist with the Bonnets Program.
Cheers
Mark
