Tributes paid to Penny Iveson, tireless Brighton campaigner for justice and equality

If you ever met Penny Iveson, even once, you would remember her. Tall, elegant with a shock of red hair falling below her shoulders. It wasn’t just her appearance that made an indelible mark. It was also the fire in her belly for social justice, particularly the rights of women, that is unforgettable. Very sadly last week we lost Penny after a long battle with cancer that, earlier, saw the loss of the locks of her hair. But cancer could not blunt that fighting spirit.
