I recently collaborated with Heart of Glass on a short article about their Strong Women of Knowsley project.
It features the inspiring voices of local women captured through a series of oral history interviews.
Iโd love for you to give it a read ๐

The summer of 1976 is widely remembered as one of the hottest and driest in UK history. The country endured a prolonged heatwave, with temperatures soaring above 32ยฐC โ๏ธ
Halewood, 1976.
Come along to the Eagle and Child pub on Friday 28th February from 10 am to 12 pm to see photographs and objects from Halewood's past. It's a nice opportunity to connect with local history and see some fascinating items from the area and have a nice hot drink โ๏ธ
The rent account belonging to Sarah Lunt from 1878 -1882.
According to the 1881 census, Sarah was a 64-year-old widow and head of household. She managed a 9-acre farm located on Higher Road, Halewood.
Over the past few years, I've built up a collection of items relating to the history of Halewood.
Would it be of interest to you or anyone you know if I put a local exhibition together for people to see these in real life in 2025. Thinking a coffee morning or something similar.
