'BRING YOUR BABY' FOUNDER LUCY'S OTHER PROJECTS
An unashamed geek, 'Bring Your Baby' founder Lucy Madison often gets her fingers stuck into other pies, such as co-writing the book 'Women from Hackney's History' and the film 'Women of Abney', writing the 'Horrid Hackney' blog, giving public talks and leading private walks.
'WOMEN FROM HACKNEY'S HISTORY'
Lucy wrote 23 entries for Women from Hackney's History, which was published by The Hackney Society and Hackney History. The book sold out within a year and was reprinted in the summer of 2022.
The book contains 113 illustrated biographies of women from Hackney’s history who lived or worked, or were born or buried, in today’s borough of Hackney. Drawn from widely differing backgrounds, none of these women is still with us, but their stories cover five centuries and show us how times have changed for women and for Hackney.
Volume 2, with a further 113 women from Hackney's history, is due to be published in 2025.
