AdminHistory | Helen Caddick was born in 1845. She had a long term interest in education, travel and anthropology. In 1900 she wrote 'A White Woman in Central Africa'.
Miss Caddick was the first woman member of West Bromwich Education Committee and was also one of the first governors of the University of Birmingham.
