Funny research find of the day - Lost property: “An Ostrich’s Egg”. What a bizarre object to bring the 1845 Free Trade Bazaar.

Today I got to present my research on c.19th reformers for the Inclusive Histories Project at one of the most historically fascinating venues, The House of Lords! It was great to be part of exciting discussions on how the project can make a practical impact to support teachers & museums.

Very excited to share that I’m starting my new job as a Research Associate on the ‘Inclusive Histories’ project. I’ll be working closely with @bishopsgateinst.bsky.social and The London Archives to uncover new and diverse sources on c.19th radical protest and reform for schools.
