Course programme
This series of tours gives centre stage to women whose experiences have left their mark on London. Visiting such
diverse areas as Bow, Belgravia, Hampstead Garden Suburb, Westminster and Whitechapel the women you will
'meet' include campaigners Sylvia Pankhurst, Annie Besant and Henrietta Barnett, social workers Alice Model and
Miriam Moses but the tours also profile the work and lives of the un-named women who toiled below stairs as
servants in the West End.
