Ă propos de nous
It's time to introduce you to the Women of London! We redress the balance by giving you Her Voice, Her Place, Her city Trailblazing, rebel rousing, anarchistic, philanthropic. infamous, badass sisters of London.
From the women who worked on the bridges during WW II to the doctors and surgeons who were the first of their kind after the Sex Disqualification act of 1919. We delve into the lives of secret agents, inventors and composers, some still alive today.
I take you through the alleyways and squares of London and you get to soak up the herstory and culture of this beautiful city.
Women have been invisible for hundreds of years. They were the brains behind inventions, the writers of books credited to men and the backbone of London society. They say history is written by the victorious ... we know history is by men for men which is why it's called HIS STORY. So I want you to chuck out all your preconceptions and come with me through the streets of London to learn HER STORY.
Everyone is welcome. The tours are suitable for women, men and children. Bring your dogs too!
Typically a walk will last between 1.30hrs and 2hrs. Suitable for residents of the UK and Visitors.
If you sign up for a walk please change your RSVP in good time. Changing your RSVP an hour before is not enough notice for me.
Any tour which does not reach the minimum requirement of three people will be rescheduled.
**The cost is ÂŁ10 before the tour starts either in cash or by buying a ticket from my website www.flocklessbutfree.com**

Whitechapel Wimmin!
217 Whitechapel Rd, 217 Whitechapel Road, London, GB### đ¶ââïžWhitechapel & The East End: Radicals, Rebels and Real History
Whitechapel is so much more than one misogynistic murderer. This walk dives into the real East Endâthe thinkers, immigrants, agitators and communities that shaped it.
Weâll explore the streets once walked by:
âą Anarchists and radicals
âą Brilliant social reformers and Fabians
âą Waves of migrants who transformed the area
Our route takes in Whitechapel, Stepney Green, Brick Lane and Spitalfields, where:
âą Stunning Huguenot houses sit beside bold street art
âą Bangladeshi curry houses rub shoulders with hipster cafes
âą Cultures overlap in the most fascinating way
Weâll finish just opposite Spitalfields, at the steps of Hawksmoor's Christchurch. Built to tame and control. A final resting place for hundreds of women and children, the heart of the East End.
