Hello 
It was fantastic to welcome Secretary of State for Scotland, Rt Hon Alister Jack MP, to our social enterprise, Scotland’s Bravest Manufacturing Company, on Thursday 14th October.

Alister Jack said:
“It was a real pleasure to visit Scotland’s Bravest Manufacturing Company to see first-hand the work they are doing to support disadvantaged Scottish veterans. “Throughout the pandemic their team of veterans have been providing a truly valuable service to Scotland, producing signage for businesses and healthcare providers, including the NHS, so that essential workers and those on the front line of care can return swiftly to work. “It was really inspiring to see how the factory has continued to grow at pace over the past year. The Scotland’s Bravest model clearly shows that it’s possible for enterprises to become leaders in industry while genuinely improving people’s lives.”

This talk will explore the history of Canada’s official First World War photography program from its inception in 1916 to its conclusion in 1919. We will meet each of Canada’s war photographers and examine their individual styles through viewing digitized vintage prints from the war. This investigation of original photographs will allow us to learn more about the materiality and complex lives of printed objects.

She has an MA in history from Wilfrid Laurier University, as well as an MA in Photographic Preservation and Collections Management.
