In 1969, Colin Kirkwood took on the job of area principal for adult education in north-east Derbyshire. There he formed a partnership with Rob Hunter, a community worker. Together, they encouraged the residents of Staveley, Derbyshire, a small coal, steel and chemicals town, to produce 'Staveley Now', a community newspaper devoted to fact-finding and debate on local issues. The experience formed the subject of an MSc dissertation by Colin entitled 'Community Work and Adult Education in Staveley December 1969 to December 1971' [not in the collection].
Contents include a run of 'Staveley Now' (1970-1973) plus research notes, publications and correspondence.
