What objects say Lockleaze to you?!

Following on from our session at Boing! on 10th May where we got together to share memories of Lockleaze ... M Shed now want to create an 'Object Box', containing items that tell a story about Lockleaze, as part of the forthcoming exhibit. T

 This photograph shows the type of objects displayed in the box for Clifton and Hotwells
SO...
if you have any objects that you think relevant to Lockleaze and it's history, please contact: Ben Meller at ben.meller@bristol.gov.uk or on 0117 903 1565.

 I hear on the grapevine that North Bristol Advice Centre are donating one of their mugs!
NOTE: Latest news is that the ‘Lockleaze’ exhibit is expected end of July/beginning of August with an “official launch” probably in September.

    I heard today that the sign from the old Lockleaze Secondary School has been donated.

      Yes, I think that is true - also the weather vane. If you are interested in the history of Lockleaze worth looking out a copy of Lockleaze (Britain in old Photographs)by Ian Haddrell (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Lockleaze-Britain-Old-Photographs-Haddrell/dp/0752454072)

    I know that North Bristol Advice Centre run a Community Support at Home project for older residents. I have enjoyed attending some of their 'Tea and Talks' in the past. Wondering if they could organise a day trip for older residents to visit this exhibition?
