Digital Stories (oral histories)

Listen to people's memories of Hastings Pier.
This collection of 'Digital Stories' were produced by Jake Bowers as part of an intergenerational oral history project entitled ‘In Living Memory’ commissioned by Hastings Pier Charity’s Learning and Education department within the scope of the department’s Heritage Lottery Funded Activity Plan. As part of this project students from Ark Helenswood Academy learnt interview techniques and how to use recording equipment. Jake and the students met with members of the local community and recorded their memories of Hastings Pier. Thank you to everyone who shared their story with us.
