I've been given the final date for the premiere event for the project which has been moved to the 26th feb at 6pm. The venue is to be the Burnley Mechanics theatre. All are welcome to attend as this is a free event and well worth a look at all the work that the young people put into the project and would be great for anyone interested in the heritage of industrial Lancashire.

Hope to see you there.

Excellent. Very thought provoking. It brought back memories of when I lived in Helmshore. I am researching my family tree and like most Lancashire families almost all the children and adults worked in the mill. Projects like this are so important to show us what their lives were like.

Enjoyed that very much. Only "watched" the 1st quarter of an hour but had it on to listen to the whole and caught bits of the rest on video as I was spring cleaning the living-room!
The girl Melissa was quite transformed from being innarticulate and pretty ignorant on the subject at the beginning.
Love the vintage clips with plummy accents -MEnchester instead of Manchester...etc:D

And hearing all those luvvly Lanky accents too:)

Thanks Mobertol, It was a real journey with these young people. And each one has developed so much. And you wouldn't recognise Mel now, she has developed so much. They ALL have!
