Get ready to step back in time and uncover the harsh realities of child labour in the Potteries of Stoke-On-Trent during the mid 1800s.
In this video, we take a closer look at the role that young workers played in Stoke's pottery industry and explore the conditions they faced while operating the kilns in the six towns.

During this period, the government commissioned several reports to investigate the use of child labour in the city's factories. The findings were alarming, and they shed light on the brutal working conditions that young workers had to endure.

Stoke-On-Trent heavily relied on the use of child labour to operate its pottery factories, and this video goes through some of the struggles and hardships that these workers had to face.

Through a fictional meeting between two men, inspired by real events, we delve into the city's local history to examine the social and economic impact that child labour had on the Potteries.

Join us as we explore the real stories of those who worked in the factories, and learn about the legacy of the Potteries in shaping Stoke's identity.
