Things I Would Change - Accounts from children in Fryston, West Yorkshire (2009)

Last night I was looking through an old hard-drive and came across a project I'd worked on in the old coal mining town of Fryson in West Yorkshire between June and October 2009.
There was a lot of urban regeneration going on in the area and I was brought in to record local stories that connected people to Fryston but also what they would like in the process of their area being developed.
Naturally I loved meeting people and recording their stories and these are the results of some of these chats. These films were produced in 2009 and have not been shown publicly before.
