If you want us to record your oral history let us know and we’ll arrange an interview.
We are very keen to speak to older members of the community with memories of Liverpool in the 1940’s, 1950’s and 1960’s.
If you want to interview and record someone else’s oral history let us know and we will arrange for you to attend a training session.
If you want to write about your experiences why not attend one of our reminiscence workshops? Contact Us and we’ll give you more details.
