THE dramatic history of struggles by matchgirls, dockers, suffragettes and rebel councillors in London’s East End will be retraced and celebrated in a new two-hour guided walk, taking place for the first time at 2.30pm on Sunday (September 12).

“The Spark of Rebellion in Bow and Mile End” has been devised by writer and educationalist David Rosenberg, who currently leads several other historical tours for adults and young people around Islington, Spitalfields and Cable Street.

The fee for the walk is £7 (£4 unwaged) and bookings can be made online by emailing david@eastendwalks.com
