S1 Ep2: Sarah Williams-Robbins

Medi-Culture Conversations Episode 2 with Sarah Williams-Robbins Host: Ilsa Jones In this episode, Ilsa is joined by Sarah Williams-Robbins, an accredited City of London guide and health promotion specialist known as Mrs Londoner, to explore the history of medicine, healing and disease in one of London's most storied neighbourhoods. Together they trace the story of London Bridge as a site of healing, from the monks and nuns who shaped early approaches to care, to the herbs and remedies that preceded modern medicine, to the Thames itself as a source of both illness and renewal. They also reflect on what it means to walk through a place mindfully, and why moving through history on foot offers something that reading about it simply cannot.
