Description
Walk starts: Outside The Dominion Theatre by Tottenham Court Road tube station. There are lifts to the exit at New Oxford Street, seconds away.
Walk ends: Back at Tottenham Court Road station
There will be a 40 minute break halfway through for you to go and get something to eat and drink and change baby before meeting back up with the guide.
Winner of 'Best Parent Activity' at the 'Bablands Awards', 'Bring Your Baby' Guided London Walks are sensitively devised to suit parents and carers of even the tiniest babies to enjoy London’s history. We can stop whenever you like to feed and change - without the stress of feeling you are holding up the group. Because every participant brings their baby, patience and baby’s needs are at the forefront of each walk.
You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.
"Women from Soho's History"
This walk has been written and is guided by City of London guide and co-author of 'Women from Hackney's History', Sue Doe.
What you'll see and learn about:
- The purity campaigner who was no prude, but still annoyed a young Winston Churchill.
- The outrageous parties run by two women, two centuries apart.
- Where one of the most famous photos of the Swinging Sixties was taken.
- The Eighties pop star who sang about an empty bench in Soho Square.
- The Sixties pop star who lived on the streets of Soho.
- The Refuge for Women which still helps them, despite being a private members club.
- The property owners who profited from a pornography empire.
- Two of the handful of female Royal Academicians of the 18th century.
- Where in Chinatown was the hub of the interwar lesbian scene.
- Plus many actresses, dancers, business owners. And of course a suffragette.
