The Year of Steel project, to be held at Kirkleatham Museum, will preserve the history of our steel making heritage for generations to come.

But it can’t be done without the help of local people who have been involved in the steel industry.

A special roadshow will be held on Saturday 14 April between 11am-3pm at Kirkleatham Museum to record people’s steel stories.

The project is looking for anyone who has a passion for Teesside’s industry and heritage, worked within the steel industry past or present, or who has stories, photographs or artefacts to share.

Anyone is unable to attend the roadshow but has a steel story to tell can email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
