RIC MORRIS

I hold the Blue Badge in Tourist Guiding (in fact three Blue Badges: Southern, South East England and London). This is the UK's highest professional qualification for tourist guiding - the training is detailed and comprehensive. I’m a Member of the Institute of Tourist Guiding and I am accountable to their Code of Professional Conduct.

From 2001-2013 I worked on the LGBTQ History Tour of Soho with the community development organisation centred where I researched and developed tour content and trained new accredited guides.

My book A-Z Hidden Brighton Walks was published by Harper Collins March 2023.

I’ve lived in Brighton since 2007. 

I have Public Liability Insurance through the British Guild of Tourist Guides.
