Talk of the Steamie will explore the importance of Public Wash-houses to working class communities, especially women, in the UK during the 19th and 20th centuries. It will consider the social and cultural significance that they played in their communities then and the importance of this heritage now. It will also think about the future of women’s health and well-being as Govanhill Baths is remodelled into a Health and Well-being Centre.

The conference will take place on Wednesday 5th September, 10am-4pm. Tickets are free but must be reserved. To see the full programme and to reserve tickets visit: Eventbrite
