The project aims to promote a particular aspect of the history of communities within the Chew Valley. It will focus on those who were displaced by the construction of the Chew Valley Reservoir in the 1950s and others in the area whose lives were disrupted by the development.

Local recollections will be recorded along with a collection of visual images. Local people will be involved in running a series of workshops to demonstrate skills in recording, producing visual material and processing into digital format.
