Following our appearance at the Transport Festival the committee realised that we were missing out recording the oral history of the factory workers who helped to run the industries of Leyland and Farington in the last century.
 
So whilst this appeal is primarily going out to the people of Leyland, we want to open out the search to help us establish a database of Leyland and Farington workers.

We are not just talking about the Motors, but also the three rubber works, Leyland & Birmingham Rubber Company, BTR, Leyland Paints, the cotton mills or any other factories, workshops or other manufacturing premises in Leyland and Farington.

We will then record their memories for future generations making them available to the North West Sound Archive, the local museums and schools.
