SUMMARY:What was life like at the Sanitary Laundry?
DESCRIPTION:A meeting of History Portal Club\, with Lucy Whitfield\, Historian. \nWe’ll take a deep dive into the life of the Sanitary Laundry\, which was just by Ivy Lane School (the chimney’s still there\, albeit a bit shorter than it was). This workplace employed generations of townsfolk\, but piecing its history together is a job and a half\, so if you (or one of your folks) worked there at any time\, please pass on some memories. \nThis interactive club session will explore the life and times of a bygone workplace that played a significant part in the culture of the town\, with practices and technologies that are long gone but still fondly remembered. \nHistory Portal Club is a friendly regular meet-up for curious locals who love stories from the past\, hidden landmarks\, and great company. It’s a great way to explore the local area’s past together – no lectures\, no stuffy rooms\, just walking\, talking\, pub chats\, and stories you won’t find in the guidebooks.

SUMMARY:Treasures from the Archives – Explore\, Discover\, Discuss
DESCRIPTION:Make 2025 your year of discovery and join our new Treasures from the Archives group. This is an opportunity for you to explore some of the amazing documents in the Wiltshire and Swindon Archive collections in a friendly and informal setting. \nThe group meets every other month on a Saturday\, led by Community History Advisor Gianna Torchia. Each hour-long session will focus on an original document that will be explored and discussed to reveal the creative side of archives through the stories of people\, places or events. Gianna hopes to inspire members to get creative using information from the original documents. An information pack\, including transcriptions and reading lists\, will be available at the end of each session. \nEach session has a different theme which will provide you with an opportunity to explore not only the original documents\, but also to look at recreations made by Gianna especially for the session\, such as knitting from historic patterns and tasting products made using original recipes. \nTreasures from the Archives is the ideal introduction to exploring Wiltshire’s history and expanding your understanding and knowledge of the Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre’s collections. \nThe sessions are free and will run every other month on a Saturday from 11:00 to 12:00. \nFor more information contact archives@wiltshire.gov.uk or tel 01249 705500
