Join us for a powerful conversation reflecting on the 40th anniversary of the 1984-85 miners’ strike, one of the most pivotal events in Britain’s industrial and political history.
Featuring Emily P. Webber, author of Mining Men: Britain's Last Kings of the Coalface, and Craig Oldham, author of In Loving Memory of Work, the event explores the strike’s lasting impact on working-class identity, community, and resistance.
Through personal stories, visual archives and historical insight, the panel will examine how media narratives shaped public perception, and how ideas of masculinity, solidarity, and sacrifice were forged and fractured in the fight for survival.
