These are the collected musings of Cheltenham people, a snapshot of Cheltenham life (visit the exhibition homepage).

We are indebted to Simon Turner who spent many hours editing the material into manageable chunks, the Cheltenham Art Gallery & Museum staff who put forward inspired ideas for who to approach, Ann-Rachael Harwood, curator of Social History for access to wonderful illustrative images from the collections and Pete Riley from the Cheltenham Borough Council webteam who had the foresight to display the material in this way.

But most of all, to everyone who told their story for this project – thanks for the memories.
