The History of Reading Society will welcome Kaye Gough and Jenny Knight for the event.

The pair are volunteer archivists at the Museum of English Rural Life, and tour guides of East Thorpe House and the museum. They also performed in a play about the Swing Riots.

They will tell the stories of six women, using the MERL archives.

The meeting is for the society’s members and will be held on Zoom from 7.30pm on Wednesday, February 15.
