It was a pleasure to speak to local historian Geoff Simmons who has more knowledge of Tooting than anyone I've met.

Episode 11 Tooting Baby
Meeting Issy was a delight as I personally wanted to thank her and her predecessors for the invaluable resource that is the Tooting baby website https://tootingbaby.co.uk/, now also promoted on Instagram @TootingBabyand Twitter @BabyTooting.
The site provides a diary of tried and tested events for parents and caregivers of children up to school age - which are drop in and often free. The site also provides options for parents and caregivers.
A delightful conversation where once again the sense of the Tooting community resounds strongly and the energy of people like Issy working behind the scenes supports local residents and businesses alike.
