This portfolio of photographs was compiled with the help of a The Year of the Artist award. It set out to pay tribute to some of the many women whose ordinary working lives show a dedication and skill that often goes unnoticed.

The photographs are accompanied by written verbatim statements taken down by local poet and author James Crowden. The exhibition of this work attracted a great deal of interest and with support from the County Museums a successful grant application was made to support their publication.
