PROJECT:

A project aimed at Under Fives, Young People aged between 16-25 and at Adults who either use a day centre or live in a residential care. This project takes artifacts from the collections at Great Yarmouth out into the community to provide informal learning experiences and a chance to get your hands on your own heritage.

PROGRESS:

The Great Yarmouth Voices Archive is a computer-based archive of everyday history told by the people that lived through it. The archive is a collection of photographs, oral history and video which will be on display to the public in 2004 when the new Tower Curing Works Museum opens. Now is your opportunity to add your voice to the archive, if you have any stories about Great Yarmouth’s past or present then contact us. Also if you are interested in getting involved with this exciting project give us a call.
