Working Class Movement Library — Attraction in Salford

Interesting little place with very friendly staff.

The upper floors are only available on a Friday tour and I would only recommend going if you have one.

Finally, there is a lot of information boards on the ground floor going into the history of the independent labour party.

(Thanks again for showing me around even though the tour wasn't running.)

Would only recommend for people into left wing...

Our guide, Julie, was showing us this Julibee House inside out, from rooms, books, to boxes. She kept the journey relaxing and fun! We were able to learn some insights from the workers there and touch some valuable collections.

It's free for everyone, but upstairs only open with the guided tour, and it was 2pm on a Friday.

Highly recommend anyone drop by their shop, most people from our group found those badges are quite interesting and meaningful, as same as the torte bag.

Don't forget to ring the...

Booked a tour and went today, it was a fascinating collection. Thanks to the volunteers who walked us through a quite eclectic collection of trade union badges, flags, prints and records.

There's something more local on the ground floor about the redevelopment of Salford...
