From a recent email from Vicky Diamond of The Putney Society re blue Plaques for Women in Wandsworth:
'The Committee had decided to shelve Blue Plaques for this year, because, as I told you,  we are not as flush as we were, and there wasn't someone able to take it on currently.  Everything costs more, from stamps, to room hire, to printing, insurance etc.  We're having to be a bit careful about what we take on. Plaques are very expensive (I think the total, including installation is somewhere near £900), and very time consuming to organise. We all agree that it's time there was another female plaque, but it has to be when there's someone able to put in the time and effort, and for funds to be freely available.  I personally think we have to wait until there's more money in the kitty, so to speak, and it isn't something I, or the Community Panel can take on.' No plaque for Jilly or for any other notable women in Wandsworth at present it would appear...
