Isabella Ure Elder (1828–1905) was a British philanthropist who took a particular interest in education, especially of women, and in the welfare of the people of Govan in Glasgow. In Govan alone, Elder was responsible for building Elder Park Library, a School for Domestic Economy, Cottage Hospital, the Cottage Nurses Training Home, and erecting a statue in honour of her husband John Elder. She also gifted Elder Park to the people of Govan. Many of her philanthropic works are still open to the community today.
