Michala Hulme

I am an award-winning historian of nineteenth-century British history, with a particular focus on the experience of living and dying in the urban environment. I am also a public historian who works with charities, community groups, the media, heritage organisations and museums, helping to engage the wider public in history. My last research project Finding the Peterloo Eleven, was shortlisted for Humanities Research Project of the Year at THE Awards (2020). I am currently working on three public history projects with Manchester United, The Pankhurst Museum and Knutsford Council. I am also an expert on ITV’s DNA Journey and Channel 4’s The Great British Dig
