Andrew Fotherington talks about Barton Memory Fair.wmv

Andrew Fotherington talks to Alyssa & The Community Link Crew (GFM 96.6) about the Barton Memory Fair. The Picturedrome Theatre on Barton Street will be the venue for a unique 'Memory Fair' celebrating the Barton and Tredworth community (Saturday 18 June).
"We would like to encourage ordinary people to see themselves and their lives as a proud and important part of history that is worth documenting." [Andrew Fotherington]
The event is part of the Heritage Lottery Funded Hidden Lives project -- a collaboration between the Gloucester Theatre Company, the University of Gloucestershire and Gloucestershire Archives - to develop a fascinating historical and social record of Barton and Tredworth through spoken reminiscence, digital stories, and the digitisation of documents and artifacts from within the local community.

The Hidden Lives website has gone very quiet now. Also, the 'Website - Volunteering - Contribute' addresses are gibberish.
