How about the effect about the men who didn't go or the import of labour or Despite the mainstream Labour Party's support for the Coalition, they were instrumental in opposing mobilisation through organisations such as the Non Conscription Fellowship based in Accrington and surrounding areas.

I presume Gayle is applying for the funding from the woman's perspective, but I think all aspects of the tradgedy will be covered. Personally I think that's quite a novel way of getting funds that wouldn't be otherwise available.
I don't really see your gripe, it's not costing us anything indirectly. Plus it will be great to hear the play on the radio, which incidentally doesn't focus on the feamale perspective, and people that get to hear it might learn something important about out town's history.
