A project that takes us on a stroll down memory lane with recordings of Ampthill residents sharing their stories.
It’s a unique peek into the heart and soul of our town’s history. The memories allow us to explore Ampthill’s past through the personal tales and cherished memories of its residents.,
The project has been made possible by grants from the Inspiring Volunteers Grant (Central Bedfordshire), the Ampthill Town Council Community Grant Fund and the Rookery South Community Trust grant, supplemented by funding from the Preservation Society for which we are extremely grateful. We couldn’t have made it happen without the help of Terry Lee, Senior Tutor in Radio & Audio at the University of Bedfordshire and recently appointed Chair of the Community Media Association and we really appreciate the time and expertise, that he has already given to us.
Of course, most importantly, we could not run the project without all the residents that have allowed us to record their precious memories, without them the project wouldn’t exist. So we extend our deep appreciation and thanks to all those that have already completed interviews and all those that will do so in the future.
There are always more memories to be had, so if you would like to share your memories with us and are happy to have them included in the Ampthill Past Memories project, please do see us after the meeting or email us/telephone us when convenient.
