Chivers Memories
Listen first hand to employees, take in an original Chivers’ film or simply gen up with our ‘jam-packed’ talks on Chivers.
Our Society has interviewed many ex-employees to hear what it was like working in the Chivers’ world. Click on our memory recordings (coming soon) to hear their favourite recollections, descriptions of working conditions and the hot gossip from company outings. Each interview helps bring the factory floor back to life.
Our local expert and Society member, Eleanor Whitehead, has given several talks on Chivers, including one on the exhibits at the Chivers Exhibition held in 2023.
