EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Prunella Stack, a pioneering figure in the women's health and fitness movement, stands confidently in front of The Mortimer Halls on Great Portland Street in London. Prunella was the charismatic leader of The Women's League of Health and Beauty, an organization she had inherited from her mother, Mrs. Bagot Stack. Established in the 1930s, the League's primary aim was to promote racial health and well-being among women. Prunella's vision was of a league of women who would renew their energy and vitality for themselves and, in turn, make the world a better place to live in. She firmly believed in the power of women to transform their lives through regular exercise, healthy living, and self-care. The League's influence extended beyond physical health, as it also emphasized the importance of mental, emotional, and social well-being. The photograph captures the essence of Prunella's determination and passion for her cause. She is dressed in a simple yet elegant outfit, her posture exuding strength and grace. The backdrop of The Mortimer Halls, with its ornate columns and high ceilings, underscores the significance of the League and its mission. Now known as The Fitness League, Prunella continued to be actively involved with the organization until her death in 2010. Her legacy lives on through her granddaughter, Saba Douglas Hamilton, who now serves as the League's President. The Women's League of Health and Beauty remains an enduring testament to Prunella's vision and her unwavering belief in the power of women to create positive change in their lives and in the world.
