This print captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the resilience and unity of the workers from Round Oak Steelworks in Brierley Hill, West Midlands. Taken on the 30th of November 1982, this image immortalizes a gathering where these hardworking individuals came together to discuss the impending closure of their beloved factory. In the backdrop of an industrial landscape, we witness a group of determined men and women standing shoulder to shoulder, their faces etched with concern yet radiating strength.

The photograph encapsulates not just a specific era but also symbolizes broader themes such as disputes, industry, and labor struggles that defined the 1980s.
