Anybody Everybody Tottenham Jamila

Another excellent small local advocacy group - for the slightly older generation this time (mind you I am eligible to join in five years!)It was great fun to talk to James from the Haringey over 50s Forum about local issues and then at the very end our top tips went all around the world - James' travel stories would make a great episode or even season!

Happy 2024 to all of you, just checking in!

Such a beloved institution - one that many of our previous guests have mentioned as part of their own story. It only really occurred to me as I was listening to Deborah again about the tradition of collecting oral histories that this podcast is kind of that, too - collecting community voices to paint a picture of Tottenham / Haringey during this particular period in time. Obviously a small blip once you listen to the wide scope Bruce Castle covers. Also on a side note - as a teacher I know ha...
