We want to hear about your experiences in the town, from long ago to right now. What do you think is special about the area and its heritage? Have you any views or stories about the town’s historic buildings and the people who’ve lived and traded in them? What events you’ve been to in the town in the past and what would you like to see in the future? Send us your stories and ideas … If you have a memory of life in Sowerby Bridge, an opinion about life here, or a vision for the future of the town please let us know, either by making and sending us a short video, letter, picture, photograph or card. Be as creative as you like, you can express yourself through songs, music, poems, dance, drawings, sketches, filmed performances, conversations or monologues.
