.Marie Charlotte Carmichael Stopes (15 October 1880 – 2 October 1958) was a British author, palaeobotanist and campaigner for eugenics and women’s rights. She made significant contributions to plant palaeontology and coal classification, and was the first female academic on the faculty of the University of Manchester. With her second husband, Humphrey Verdon Roe, Stopes founded the first birth control clinic in Britain. Stopes edited the newsletter Birth Control News, which gave explicit practical advice. Her sex manual Married Love (1918) was controversial and influential, and brought the subject of birth control into wide public discourse. Stopes opposed abortion, arguing that the prevention of conception was all that was needed.

In 1917, before meeting Marie Stopes, Humphrey Roe offered to endow a birth control clinic attached to St Mary’s Hospital in Manchester. He proposed all patients would be married and that no abortions would be done, but his offer was declined.^[27][28] This was a serious issue for Roe; after their marriage, he and Stopes planned to open a clinic for poor mothers in London.^[29]

Stopes founded the Society for Constructive Birth Control and Racial Progress, a support organisation for the clinic in London at the end of 1920
