Brent has recently opened a major new local history exhibition at the Brent Museum in Willesden Library Centre. It covers a wide range of grassroots projects in the Borough including the Ancient Order of Foresters, the Stonebridge Bus Depot Project (that eventually became Bridge Park), the Grunwick Strike and lots of local NHS facilities. Some of it was certainly new to me and it is well worth a visit for anyone interested in local history.
It looks as if it is partly grown out of the refurbishment of the Kiln Theatre whose lottery grant was partly dependent on demonstrating community involvemnt.
