I will forward on this email to the learning team at Sheffield Industrial
Museums Trust (Kelham Island Industrial Museum, Abbeydale Hamlet and
Shepherd Wheel - all former metalworking sites).
Can I suggest that you contact Jon Bradley the Community Manager at
Sheffield Museums. Their remit is not strictly steel, but they do operate
the excellent metalwork gallery at the Millennium Galleries in Sheffield.
There is Galvanise - an annual festival of metalwork held in Sheffield -
see http://www.galvanizesheffield.com/
Can I also suggest the learning team at Rotherham's Magna - if you haven't
contacted them already.
Regards
Brian Holmshaw
Sheffield General Cemetery Trust and
Museum Education Consultant

------------------------------------------------------
Dear Gemmers,
I am the community engagement manager for the British Steel Archive Project
based in Teesside. I was chatting recently with Helen Reardon who is
Projects Officer - Community Engagement at The Works, the former steelworks
in Ebbw Vale, South Wales, UK.
We were wondering if anyone else out there is involved in outreach or
education work for current or former metal works in the UK, and if so would
they like to form a group or email list to share experience, ideas,
resources and the occasional bit of sympathy if required?
If anyone is out there feel free to contact me on [log in to unmask]
Look forward to hearing from you
Jenny Search
