Hard Pressed: Lifetimes

It's the 1970s. You're the tenant of an overlooked overspill estate on the outskirts of Manchester and you've just lost a housing dispute with the local authorities. What do you do? Write of course. Greg Wilkinson talks about how his community development work on the estate led to the publication of a group autobiography and a writing development organisation for Manchester. Hosted by Heena Patel. The Hard Pressed heritage project is funded by National Lottery Heritage Fund.
