Closed Emily Wilding Davison memorial plaque at Epsom Racecourse

Closed on

On 4 June 1913, Emily Wilding Davison an activist for women's suffrage, stepped in front of King George V's horse running in the Epsom Derby, sustaining injuries that resulted in her death four days later.
I am asking for the UK to acknowledge this lady's sacrifice by erecting a memorial plaque at Epsom Race course.
