Endell Street Military Hospital was a First World War military hospital located on Endell Street, Covent Garden, London. This was the only hospital entirely staffed by suffragists (women who supported the introduction of votes for women). The hospital was established during the First World War in May 1915 by Doctors Flora Murray and Louisa Garrett Anderson. Both women were former members of the Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU), a militant organization fighting for Women’s suffrage in the United Kingdom in the early 20th century.

Most of the hospital equipment came from the recently closed military hospital in Wimereux, France. Murray and Anderson previously headed this hospital that was closed down because of lack of patients. . Endell Street military hospital had 573 beds and was able to carry out as many as 20 operations a day. Krismcl19 (talk) 19:41, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
