    News/Events Category: Community Events


    When: 6.00pm, Friday 04 December 2015
    Where: Lochgelly Centre, Bank Street, Lochgelly. KY5 9RD
    This event is being organised by WEA Scotland (Fife)

    It is too late to book a place for this particular session, sorry about that.

    WEA Fife Local Association are delighted to host a free event to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the end of Miners' Strike, with a showing of "Here We Go: Women Living the Strike", a documentary filmed and produced by Maggie Wright.

    This powerful documentary highlights not only the role women played but also explores the solidarity and class struggle which underpinned the day to day events. The women in the film reveal with honesty their personal experiences and the triumphs and tragedies of what was a very difficult time for all. The event is open to anyone of any age to come along to and will include the film show, an exhibition of memorabilia, and a range of speakers who will share their recollections, and reflections on what was learnt during and from that period in history.

    This event promises to be interesting, emotional and educational - all in equal measures. For further information please contact Caron Hughes on either 01383 510774 or e-mail: [email protected]

    Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided.
