#SingerStories Festival in 2018 was the culmination of the MGS-funded project A Stitch in Time, which gathered oral histories from Singer workers, providing vital information on working there & the company’s impact on local lives #UntoldStories #Archive30 @ARAScot

You know you did something right as a performer when you get the Georgia crowd into 'Sweet Home Alabama' 🎵🎤😎🙏🤷🤣 #SingerStories #stagelife

Great to see our #SingerStories project being showcased at the Archive and Records Association's Conference in Glasgow today! #ARA2018 #Clydebank #WestDunbartonshire
Cassells: Singer factory was a big feature of life in Clydebank but ‘not a brick’ remains of the site, so collecting #singerstories all the more vital #ARA2018

Great to hear about #singerstories with Chris Cassells. Great community engagement and oral history recorded for Clydebank Singer Factory #ara2018. Why did they not keep the clock!
Christopher Cassells @ARAconf telling us how to make oral history interviews more conversational & not intimidating, #singerstories. Adding fascinating bits on the history of Singer whose sewing machine factory in Clydebank closed in 1980.

#singerstories recruited interviewers from the community to talk to the community and also used the #businessarchive to engage with people
I've come in on the end of the #singerstories presentation, noting the difficulty of persuading people their stories are of value - and the likelihood you hear the best stories off the record. Self-censorship is a challenge too #ARA2018
A couple of #businessarchives talks in the afternoon session @ARAconf starting with #SingerStories @WDCHeritage #ARA2018

In the Chair’s Seat and hearing about #singerstories
The buttons control the traffic lights on the speaker’s podium. Before you ask, there isn’t one to open a trapdoor in the stage...

Great photograph of the Singer stall here at Kelvin Hall in 1954 at The Scottish Industries Exhibition. We thought you might like this one @WDCHeritage! This is part of the excellent @Scranlife resource available to view here at Kelvin Hall. Photograph © Newsquest (Herald&Times).

Today in 1951 Les Cullen began his apprenticeship in the Singer Factory, #Clydebank. Here's the certificate he received when he completed his apprenticeship in 1956 and a photo of him with his colleagues in the Drawing Office. #SingerStories

Two Singer 15K machines, one is from our collection the other is in the excellent Claire Kennedy exhibition in the Garden Gallery at #Clydebank Town Hall. You can't take our sewing machine home, but you can take Claire's Singer inspired works home to enjoy!#Singer #SingerStories

It was big day for #Clydebank today in 1965 as The Queen and Prince Phillip visited the #Singer Factory. Of course she knew how to work a sewing machine as she had been gifted a Singer 201K2 by the Burgh of Clydebank as a wedding present in 1947. #SingerStories

This is an industrial boot stitcher sewing machine from our collection, manufactured by Bradbury and Company Limited at their Oldham factory. It would have been mounted on a treadle, has a T shaped free standing base and is foot operated. #SingerStories
