St Hilda's East
St
Hilda's East Community Centre on the Boundary Estate is running a
year-long project to celebrate the heritage of St Hilda's and the role
that the centre has played in local people's lives over the 120 years
that it has been here. The team will be:
-
collecting oral histories from people who have worked at or used St
Hilda's - making a film with the youth club about the history of the
centre, with an informational booklet to go with it - building a
community archive within the centre, with photos, documents and
information about the Boundary Estate and St Hildas, which will be open
to the local community and hopefully provide a resource for interested
people and local schools. Anyone who would like to be interviewed or to
get involved in building the archive should contact
