Specialist, Head of Sale
The title is taken from a verse by Eliza Cook (24 December 1818 – 23 September 1889) who was an English author and poet associated with the Chartist movement. She was a proponent of political freedom for women, and believed in the ideology of self-improvement through education, something she called 'levelling up'. This made her hugely popular with the working class public in both England and America.
