Introduction:

I am Irina Porter, a Blue Badge London guide with a life long passion for British history and culture. I am Chair and Journal Editor of the Willesden Local History Society, local history author and researcher.

In 2021 I started developing a series of local history walks and presentations for Brent Heritage Walks and Trails, – a project which is part of Being Brent – Heritage for Health and Wellbeing, a project funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and delivered by Brent Museum and Archives.

I am also a volunteer tour guide for Kensal Green Cemetery and Willesden Jewish Cemetery.

Currently I am developing a series of local history walks in Brent, full details on my website: http://www.guide-for-london.com/
