About Us
The North West Labour History Group was formed in 1973 to promote and popularise the knowledge and study of all aspects of labour history in the north west of England.
Our aims include the following:
- bringing together those interested in the history of the working class and its organisations, unions, co-operative societies or political bodies
- publishing an annual journal - North West Labour History
- promoting labour history by working with other groups and organisations
- encouraging, helping, organising and developing such interest throughout the labour movement in the north west
We welcome new members who share our aims. UK membership costs £10 for individuals and £15 for organisations. Overseas membership (individual or organisation) costs £15. Members receive a copy of the annually-published North West Labour History. See the Membership page for more information.
