REMEMBERING  RESISTANCE: THE  FIRST  THREE  MONTHS

23/11/2018

1 Comment

 
We've been really busy over the last three months setting the project up and getting organised. We've heard from some fascinating women who have offered to tell us their stories of protest, brought together a fantastic team of volunteer citizen researchers, and enjoyed publicising the project through local and national media. Here's a bit more about what we've been up to. ​

Making  plans!

We're fond of drawing our ideas, and we've spent many hours in the Lancaster Institute for the Contemporary Arts making a mess on their chalk boards as we plan the project! 

As well as developing our events and activities, we've been thinking of creative ways of engaging communities in the project. 

We're always looking for people to get involved, so if you're interested in the project - get in touch!

Reaching  out

We've really enjoyed introducing the project to a range of people and organisations across the North. As well as colleagues from the People's History Museum and Sheffield Museums who are part of our Advisory Board, we've engaged with Beamish Museum, the Working Class Movement Library in Salford, Sheffield and Lancashire Archives, as well as our own fantastic library here at Lancaster University. Here are a few photos from our travels. 

Getting  the  word  out

The response to our media calls to get involved has been terrific. We really enjoyed speaking to Jenny Murray on Radio 4's Woman's Hour, and talking about the project on BBC Radio Lancashire and BBC Radio Manchester.

As well as radio, the project's been featured in The Northern Echo, Lancaster Guardian and Westmoreland Gazette. 

DESIGNING  &  REFINING

As well as a wonderful team of volunteer citizen researchers, we're working with some terrific designers. Andi and Green are developing the activities that will be part of the events we've got lined up over the next few months, and we've had a great time designing and refining our ideas with the help of one or two of our volunteers.
