AN ORAL HISTORY OF THE LIVERPOOL IRISH

After over 12 years of consultation to record an oral history of the Liverpool Irish including dual Irish and quiet Irish, we are almost ready to submit the application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

We aim to make an hour long film, digital archive, pod casts and an exhibition.

Here is a link to a pilot film we made a few years ago:

The Sound Agents promote public understanding and access to communities by recording the personal and everyday experience of Liverpool life.

The purpose of the organisation is to work inclusively with people from under-represented communities to provide opportunities to share stories using the Arts as a tool for communication.

Working outside the structure to bring together older people to pass their skills on to the younger generation by working creatively to share talents, experience and enthusiasm to bring people together to improve health and well-being and create opportunities for young people to get involved in Socially Engaged practice.
