Footprints of Love is a major community storytelling project preserving the LGBTQ+ history of Newham – through oral histories, walking tours, film, and a living digital archive that belongs to the community itself.

From kitchen-table testimonies to dancefloor memories, this is a love letter to the queer people who shaped one of the UK’s most diverse boroughs – and whose stories deserve to last.

Led by Cameye Arts CIC. Delivered in partnership with Newham Heritage Service.
