Your memories, photos etc. are invaluable to the study of music in working men’s clubs and institutes. By sharing your stories, you help fill gaps left by historical records, offering insights that might be overlooked. Join us in exploring this history.
You can:
- Fill out an online survey about clubs and institutes across the country (starting in 2025)
- Be interviewed for an oral history that will go into the archives – especially if you have lived in the areas of South East Northumberland, the South Wales Valleys (especially the Rhondda), or North East London
- Get in touch to discuss any other way you’d like to contribute or share your materials
