Podcast feedEpisode 2: The postwar life of a nursing orderly
These 4 podcasts explore the Legacy of the Endell Street Military Hospital, the only British army hospital to have been established and run by women during WW1. Opened in 1915 on the site of a former Victorian workhouse by Suffragette doctors Flora Murray and Louisa Garrett Anderson, its staff of 180 women treated over 26,000 in-patients and performed over 7,000 surgical operations. In 2018 a group of local volunteers came together to learn research and recording skills as part of a Heritage Lottery funded project, and they created these podcasts to share their findings about what happened to the hospital and its female staff members after the war ended.

St Pancras Rent Strike - Fifty Years On
Fifty Years ago, in September 1960, Camden Council tenants went on strike against unfair rent rises. On 22nd September, 1960 bailiffs evicted families who refused to pay the increase and were met with so much unrest that the Public Order Act was invoked. Forty five years after the strike, three people closely involved with those events, Edie Cook, her daughter Lorraine and Peter Richards talked with John Cowley about that day and the impact it made on subsequent events as well as how it affected their lives.
