Biddy Brown
Unknowingly now living less than an hour apart in the South of England, two incredible woman in their 90s sit down with guest host Nat Jackson, to reflect on their participation in a seminal Outward Bound course that not only changed their lives, but paved the way for hundreds of thousands of young woman to follow in their footsteps. ‘The ladies of Eskdale’: Biddy Brown and Joan Clark, attended the first ever Outward Bound course exclusively for girls in Eskdale in 1951. In this special episode, the ladies reflect on how they came to Outward Bound, the lifechanging month in the rugged West Lakes, and what this moment in time then spurred them on to do. From sheltered lives, to careers, family, and further adventure, 1951 created enduring experiences, and a lasting legacy.
