Thank you to all the women, girls, babies and men who have taken part in Daring Women of Edinburgh. This is what they say:

“We really enjoyed the Daring Women of Edinburgh tour - especially our inspired 7 year old daughter! Thank you Annabel” - Paul D

“It was a fascinating tour as I had never considered or questioned the fact that all the statues in the city were of men! Annabel led us to find those hidden plaques of distinctive women in Edinburgh's past. She was so knowledgeable but equally interested in what others could add from our tour group of four. She always listened to what anyone said and allowed discussion particularly as she posed two questions at the start of the tour. I would really recommend Annabel as a tour guide and this as a tour.“ - Cai Cheadle
