Stories of Service

In this new exhibition Discovery Museum shares recently uncovered stories of Tyneside women, and the stories of people who came to Tyneside from the African and Caribbean diaspora during the Second World War.

The stories of local women from Tyneside have never been known publicly and are the result of new research. Discovery Museum has been working with the Imperial War Museums (IWM) to deepen the knowledge of the lesser known stories of people in Tyneside from the Second World War, before they are lost forever.
