As usual I will be doing Notorious Women of Brighton and Notorious Women of Hove walking tours during the Brighton Fringe Festival throughout May. There may well be a couple of pop-up Notorious Women of Kemptown Walks too, dates to be confirmed!
Here are the details:
Notorious Women of Brighton
Wilful princesses, Music Hall stars, headstrong courtesans, entrepreneurs, Brighton has always attracted women who dare do things differently. Hear some of their stories and other female claims to fame.

Sunday mornings – 5th, 19th, 26th May, 2nd June at 10.30
Tuesday evenings – 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th May at 18.30
Notorious Women of Hove
Hove has been home to women whose ideas have shaken up our world – from some of Britain’s first woman doctors to suffragettes, social campaigners to boundary-shifting entertainers. Come and walk in these women’s footsteps and hear their inspiring stories.
Starts – outside the Garden Café, St Ann’s Well Gardens BN3 1RP
Saturday mornings – 4th, 18th, 25th May, 1st June at 10.30

All walks fully accessible, and last 1h30 – 2h.

See you there!
Sorry to miss you both today and yesterday.
I am glad to say that baby Alexander has come out of intensive care and could be home as early as Thursday. A relief for us all.
I have forwarded these dates for Louise’s walking tours in May to you Juliet, because I know you are keen to join one of Louise’s walks at some time over the Brighton festival weeks.
Hope to see you both soon
