AN AUDIO PROJECT BY OUR CHEETHAM HILL AMBASSADORS
There are so many rich, beautifully complex and compelling stories Cheetham has to share about its history, its present and its future. And together, with writer Gareth Smith and Sound Designer SHAR, our Local Exchange Cheetham Hill Ambassadors met and interviewed community groups to unearth these stories and celebrate the vibrant cultures and the eclectic voices of this diverse and passionate Cheetham community. And that’s how UP THE HILL was created – an audio project we are delighted to be able to share with you all.
Made in collaboration with over 30 participants, UP THE HILL delves into Cheetham’s past, the roots of migration, the strength in knowing one’s community (& the forgotten communities), the freedom and intimacy found in space, the things our hearts long for, the revelatory nature of art & culture and what the future may hold.
There are seven parts to UP THE HILL, each based on personal anecdotes shared by participants and narrated by some of them.
