Our monthly walk: Saturday 8th February, 11.00, Wapping and Shadwell
Suggested by our walking group, this month’s walk is one of the Idea Store series of local history walks. We will be doing the Wapping and Shadwell walk, in reverse. Meet at the entrance to Shadwell overground station (Windrush Line) on Cable Street.
We’ll get to see some wonderful historic places: The Captain Kidd, the Dickens Inn, The Prospect of Whitby, The Town of Ramsgate… and that's just the inns. There are also wharves, docks, churches and historic houses.
If you're a member, check the walkers' WhatsApp group for up to date info on the day.

Our monthly coffee and catch-up: Friday 28th February at the Young V&A (formerly the Museum of Childhood). Meet between 10.30am and 11.00am
Our January coffee at the Young V&A scuppered by a temporary closure, we look forward to returning to this lively museum, where it promises to be warm whatever the weather.
A quick look at the museum may be in order for a look at childhoods past, its modern displays and a browse in its fabulous new gift shop.
Bethnal Green tube and bus stops nearby.
