Evelina Haverfield (née Scarlett; 9 August 1867 – 21 March 1920)[1] was a British suffragette and aid worker.

In the early 20th century, she was involved in Emmeline Pankhurst's militant women's suffrage organisation the Women's Social and Political Union. During World War I she worked as a nurse in Serbia. After the war, she returned to Serbia with her companion Vera Holme to set up an orphanage in Bajina Bašta, a town in the west of the country.[2]
