Women in the UK gained the right to vote in stages. The Representation of the People Act 1918 allowed women over the age of 30 who met certain property qualifications to vote. This was followed by the Equal Franchise Act of 1928, which extended the vote to all women over the age of 21, granting them equal voting rights with men.
