Series 2 Episode 1: Inspirational Women of Lambeth – Women’s History Month
Host: Emma Fleming
Guests: Jenni Bowley and Chris Everett
Join the Lambeth Tour Guides Association for Doing Lambeth Walks – a podcast about the people, places, and history of Lambeth. Each episode, we chat with expert Lambeth tour guides and special guests to explore topics ranging from espionage and intrigue to entertainment, culture, and everything in between. Whether you’re a local, a visitor or just curious about Lambeth, we’ll uncover the stories that make our part of London so unique.
Join Lambeth Tour Guides Jenni Bowley and Chris Everett for Women’s History Month, as they share stories from their book Inspirational Women of Lambeth. Researched and co-authored with fellow guides Jenny Rossiter and Elain Wein, the book contains information on over 100 Lambeth women – both the familiar and the less well known whose stories were at risk of being forgotten. A valuable resource for anyone wanting to learn more about women’s history in the borough, copies are available from local bookshops, libraries and online. Sit back, relax and listen in to hear about female authors, artists, aviation pioneers and even mountaineers(!) in our chat that runs from the 13th century right up to the present day.
Pub of the week: The Manor Arms, Streatham
