Life Hacks
There's nothing in the bank and you’ve just squeezed the final drop out of the last teabag, but you’ll get by.
When life throws everything it can at you and THEN your mortgage goes up it can seem like all hope is lost, but there's always someone to turn to.
Life Hacks explores poverty in a positive way, and shines a light on who we turn to when resilience just isn’t enough.

Follow the Money
A true life musical show!!
Follow the Money is a show based on the memories of women who were the frontline workforce of Barrow’s banks . . . the ladies who stamped the cheques, counted the cash and kept the wheels of industry turning from the 1960’s to the 1990’s.
Features memories of the great shipyard strike of 1988, the big wind of 1987!
The buzzer goes in Vickers – The town hall clock strikes
Men run out of the yard gates, some jump on their bikes.
They charge across the Bridge, you can almost hear their feet,
Tension mounts in the Bank, as they hurtle down Duke Street
