About

Join us at Bletchley Park for a special event celebrating the remarkable and often overlooked contributions of women in World War Two codebreaking. Marking the launch of Dermot Turing's groundbreaking new book, 'Misread Signals: How History Overlooked Women Codebreakers', this event shines a spotlight on the female codebreakers whose stories have remained in the shadows for too long.

In conversation with leading Intelligence Historian Dr Claire Hubbard-Hall, Dermot, nephew of Alan Turing, will share new research from UK and international archives, including the surprising discovery of women codebreakers in the most unexpected places, such as the Foreign Office of Nazi Germany. Explore the vital roles women played not only at Bletchley Park, but across the intelligence world, from Britain to the US and Germany.

As part of the event, Dermot will be signing copies of his book 'Misread Signals: How History Overlooked Women Codebreakers', which will be available to purchase on the day.
