Our very First Big Picture Day at Norton Hall on Saturday 26th October proved to be a great start for the Saltley Stories Project.

It was great to meet so many local people interested in the project and appreciating the historical and future importance of of the project.

With the help of many of those attending, we were able to identify quite a few of the faces in the photographs taken by Nick Hedges and Brian Homer in the mid 70\'s. One particular photograph proved to be a curiosity for a member of staff at Norton Hall. She was convinced that the child in the photogrpah was identical to her son. Lo and behold, the photogrpah proved to be of her childs father along with his sisters.

If you missed out on our Big Picture Day in October, why not join us for our 2nd event on Thursday 20th February 2014 @ Park View School, Naseby Road, Alum Rock, B8 3HG A fantastic collection of photographs of Alum Rock in the 1970s\' will be on exhibition. Hopefully you\'ll be able to help us to identify some of the people captured in the images.

Saltley Stories very first Big Picture Day will take place at Norton Hall on Saturday 28th Ocotber from 12pm - 4pm.
