Elizabeth "Dolly" Shepherd was a pioneering parachutist and daredevil in the early 20th century. From her humble beginnings as a teenager with dreams bigger than the Edwardian era allowed, to her breathtaking feats of bravery in the skies, Dolly's story is one of fearless ambition and resilience.

But her courage wasn’t confined to the clouds. During World War I, Dolly took her fearless spirit to the road as an army chauffeur, driving heavy vehicles and ambulances for wounded soldiers - a role that broke barriers and redefined women’s contributions during wartime.

We explore her groundbreaking career as a "parachute girl," the heart-stopping accident that nearly ended her life, her remarkable recovery, and her wartime service that further cemented her legacy as a trailblazer.
