Every Sunday we’ll pluck just one walk from the vast London Walks repertoire and put it center stage.
You can check out the full schedule at www.walks.com
But if you only take one walking tour this week, why not make it…

Led by Kim What a story. What human beings. What a walk. When you look at them (statues and seeing them in your mind's eye) and go over the ground, see where some of the pitched battles were fought, and get a sense, with a shudder, how they were vilified - the word vile is hardly strong enough - you'll be lost in admiration. Some of it hardly bears thinking about - how they force fed Emmeline Pankhurst in prison, for example. All of it is gripping: death, firebombing, police wading in with billy clubs, tremendous person cost - families torn apart, for example, the world's most beautiful woman attacked with a knife,astonishing bravery, even Dickens' house. Anything else? Yes, best possible guide for this one ("London Walks puts you into the hands of an expert on the particular area and topic of a tour" The New York Times): Kim. She worked in Parliament a good few years. A star Blue Badge Guide, she won the big one, the Guide of the Year Award in her year. The Monstrous Regiment - The Fight For Women's Suffrage
