Everyone who lives here has a story to tell (probably more than one). The aim of this project is to create a way of sharing the stories of the people of St Leonards. This includes people who have stories dating back over many generations and people who may have arrived more recently and who help shape the character and sense of community. Our objective is to create a living history of St Leonards by sharing these stories through photography and creative writing and in doing so, perhaps, bring us all a little bit closer together.

If you have a suggestion for an interesting story or would just like to make contact, please email us at humansinstleonards@gmail.com
