Inspired by the City of Women project, this wandering tour for UCL students will join up hidden gems in and around Camden and bring them to life through storytelling. Camden Wanderings will be a celebration of the lives and achievements of the extraordinary women and non-binary people (past and present) that have a connection to the borough and wider city.

City of Women London

What would your daily commute look like if it celebrated remarkable women and non-binary people who have shaped our city? City of Women encourages Londoners to take a second glance at places we might once have taken for granted by reimagining the iconic Underground map.

Living London

Living London wanderings offer you the opportunity to explore parts of London that remain relatively unknown and under-explored. The wanderings bring London’s magical hidden gems to life through storytelling and anecdotes of people and place. The walk lasts about 2.5 hours stopping off at various locations. This walk will be led by Saira Niazi; writer, guide and founder of Living London.
