Speaker 1 (george wife)
I grew up in Woodside and we moved
0:04
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
to Maastricht,
0:05
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
to Long Walk Place,
0:07
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
because my mother was ill and got a house.
0:11
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
She had cancer and we got the
0:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
house there.
0:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And then when I got married,
0:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
we moved to Gettleful Crescent.
0:20
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
And that's Northfield,
0:21
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
yeah.
0:21
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
That's the street there.
0:23
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
What makes this community special?
0:26
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Special?
0:30
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Well, I don't know.
0:35
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
I mean,
0:35
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
again, people have got bad vibes and everything.
0:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But we've never,
0:41
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
ever had any trouble.
0:42
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I've never had anything stolen or anything like that.
0:45
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
We've been really...
0:48
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
The neighbours are good.
0:48
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
People look after one another,
0:51
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
you know, mostly.
0:52
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It's just younger people
0:56
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
seem to know how to communicate with older people,
0:59
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
if you know what I mean.
1:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It's an age gap.
1:06
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
There's a community centre down there that used to have a lot of classes
1:12
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
on.
1:12
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But then there's not the money now to run
1:16
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it, you know.
1:17
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Is it enough for people of your generation
1:21
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
to do here in Northfield?
1:22
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Is
1:27
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
it enough for people of your generation to do here in Northfield?
1:30
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Well,
1:31
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it would be difficult for me to say because I don't stay in the Northfield area now.
1:35
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But there is...
1:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
There is, in the community centre,
1:42
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
there's the bingo and that.
1:43
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I don't go to it,
1:46
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
but I mean, I used to go to bingo when my husband was,
1:50
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
but I don't have anybody to go with now,
1:52
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
so I don't go.
1:53
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But there's a lot of classes down there.
1:56
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They used to have pensioners'
2:01
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
groups and all that kind of thing.
2:03
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
If you went tilting about,
2:05
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
you would find quite a lot to do.
2:08
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They do their food banks,
2:10
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
they're well supported by the churches round about and the
2:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
businesses.
2:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
A lot of people support them.
2:18
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Is there anything that would make a difference
2:22
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
for you?
2:23
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Anything that you would like in the community that you would enjoy?
2:26
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
That I would enjoy.
2:30
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I'm a bit past it now on my feet.
2:31
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I think I used to be dancing and everything,
2:36
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
doing it.
2:36
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I mean, when I was young,
2:38
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
they used to have,
2:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
the pensioners club used to sort
2:44
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
of put a show on,
2:45
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
like a pantomime at Christmas time,
2:47
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and have it in the church in the square.
2:52
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But of course,
2:53
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
they've knocked it down.
2:55
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They've knocked the church down.
2:57
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
I mean,
2:57
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it's just happening all over the place.
3:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But there was hundreds of folk who went to see their concert.
3:02
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It was good fun.
3:03
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And for a while,
3:06
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
the Aberdeen...
3:12
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
The orchestra,
3:13
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
you know, the band for the schools.
3:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It was at Middlefield Church,
3:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
but then it's closed now.
3:18
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Well,
3:19
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it used to be,
3:20
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it used to be done rehearse every Monday down at the
3:24
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
community centre,
3:25
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
in the church hall down there.
3:27
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And then they used to have a concert every so often to raise
3:31
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
funds for them to do,
3:33
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
to go to different places.
3:34
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And it was really,
3:36
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
really good.
3:37
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And all that stopped.
3:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
because of the lack of funds and knocking down all the churches
3:43
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and everything,
3:44
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
changing them.
3:45
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Do you think there should be money put into more places
3:49
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
to go or more buildings for people to go to?
3:51
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Well,
3:53
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I don't know if you'd get the people to go nowadays.
3:55
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They seem to be working on their computers.
4:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It's very difficult,
4:03
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I think.
4:04
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It's very difficult nowadays to keep
4:08
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
everybody happy.
4:10
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
A lot of the young people didn't want community
4:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
things for a while,
4:16
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
but they're coming back to the thoughts of wanting it again.
4:20
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They're beginning to find that there's more to life than
4:24
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
just sitting in front of their TV screens or speaking
4:28
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
on their phone.
4:29
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They want to meet together.
4:31
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
So I think that it needs to be thought about for
4:35
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
the young people.
4:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
The things that are now not being able to be done are
4:43
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
because you can't get enough people to run them.
4:45
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
All the restrictions and things.
4:48
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
You need so many adults first.
4:51
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And that's what's put a stop to a lot of the things
4:55
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
that there used to be.
4:56
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Because there used to be community for...
5:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
at Smithfield and at Northfield and a few places when
5:04
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
we were young.
5:04
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
See,
5:05
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
we used to be,
5:06
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
like the Gildery,
5:08
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and we used to have,
5:09
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
a place was called the Play Centre,
5:11
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
which we went to on a Monday night and a Wednesday night,
5:14
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and they were in the schools.
5:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But then they started charging them for the schools.
5:22
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And it cost too much money that they gradually just stopped having them because they
5:26
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
couldn't afford it.
5:26
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
We are very fortunate.
5:28
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
We still have a girls' brigade and a very good girls' brigade.
5:31
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But it costs them so much money to run that now.
5:36
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They're always trying to get funds from somewhere.
5:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
We used to have the boys' brigade as well.
5:42
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
And was that here at the church?
5:44
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Was that at this church?
5:46
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Yes.
5:47
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But there was the other churches you see as well.
5:50
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
There was Middlefield and Northfield,
5:52
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
the parish church along at Barron Square
5:56
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
there. And they all closed.
5:59
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And our wee church here,
6:01
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
as we call it,
6:02
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
the wee church on the hill,
6:04
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
was the only one that was left in this area.
6:06
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
So we've now come into contact with other people to try and
6:10
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
get things revived again.
6:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Because when that church is closed,
6:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
a lot went with it,
6:19
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
such as the orchestra and other things
6:23
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
that they ran in their churches.
6:25
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
When they had...
6:29
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
What was
6:33
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
that thing that they closed?
6:34
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
You get injections for the flu
6:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
when there was COVID.
6:42
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Covid.
6:43
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I think it just stopped.
6:46
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Is there enough facilities like shops or
6:50
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
even things like medical?
6:52
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
No.
6:54
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I haven't got a doctor's surgery up here at all.
6:57
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I mean,
6:58
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I know you see this.
6:59
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Sorry,
7:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Evie.
7:01
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Along at the bottom there,
7:02
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it's just a hub for getting
7:07
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
your bloods done or something.
7:08
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It's not a doctor's surgery up here at all.
7:11
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They were going to build one over in Spring Hill or something,
7:14
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and my daughter went,
7:15
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it was a meeting about it,
7:16
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it was supposed to be,
7:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and the only person that turned up was my daughter.
7:20
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
So they just gave up.
7:22
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They were ground and everything's over there,
7:25
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
beside the new school in Springfield,
7:27
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
no,
7:28
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Spring Hill, over that way.
7:30
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
She was the only one that turned up at the meeting,
7:32
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
so they didn't bother.
7:34
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
But then we've actually got to go to Woodside,
7:36
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
but that's a needless doctor.
7:38
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And it's a fair bit,
7:39
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and you can't get out,
7:40
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it's not a bus here.
7:41
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I mean, there is buses,
7:42
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
but they don't go to Woodside.
7:44
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
You've got to go into town and then out or get a taxi or
7:48
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
somebody gives you a lift.
7:49
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It's not easy accessible.
7:52
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
So if the council came and they had,
7:55
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
say, a quarter of a million pounds in their pocket and they were to hand it to you,
7:58
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
what would you put that towards for your community?
8:01
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
Well,
8:02
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
that would be a good thing.
8:04
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
a doctor surgery because you see a lot of people,
8:07
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
if you go to the doctor,
8:09
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
like I'm always a doctor,
8:10
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
and you see a lot of people in this area going there.
8:14
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It would be a lot easier if I had one here.
8:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It would be good for you.
8:20
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
As I say,
8:21
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I'm not in the same area now.
8:23
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I used to be a doctor down at the surgery there.
8:25
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They just made it a hub for people to go and get your
8:29
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
blood done or something like that.
8:31
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
You can't get...
8:32
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Too many old people now.
8:37
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
That's the problem.
8:38
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
We're all living too long.
8:40
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And that's the doctor's fault because they keep getting us other tablets
8:44
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
to make us well.
8:46
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
What do you think
8:50
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
would encourage more people to get involved in their community?
8:53
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
You were saying that only your daughter turned up to that meeting.
8:57
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Just lack of interest,
9:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
is it?
9:00
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Just lack of interest.
9:01
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They don't want to commit themselves.
9:06
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
like volunteering things,
9:08
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
they didn't want to commit themselves.
9:10
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
A lot of them don't want to be involved.
9:12
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
They want it to happen but they don't want to have any involvement in it.
9:16
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And as we said earlier,
9:18
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
many of these things they can't have them because
9:23
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
they need a certain amount of responsible adults to be there before
9:27
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
it can start.
9:28
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
So it's a bit of
9:32
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
a difficulty really.
9:34
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
You know,
9:35
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
there aren't the adults to...
9:37
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
Well, we find that with this church now because,
9:40
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
unfortunately,
9:41
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
most of us are getting too old to be involved in some
9:45
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
of the things now.
9:46
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And there's not enough young people.
9:48
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
So we need more young people to get involved,
9:52
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
to get things going.
9:54
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
What makes you proud of your community?
9:58
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
You've lived here many,
10:01
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
many years.
10:01
S…
Speaker 2 (george wife)
What makes you proud of where you live?
10:08
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
It is a nice place to live.
10:10
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I wouldn't have liked to live anywhere else.
10:11
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I like it here.
10:14
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
And if I'm on holiday or something,
10:16
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I can't wait to get back.
10:17
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I mean,
10:19
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
if you're away for a fortnight after 10 days and went home,
10:22
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
you know,
10:24
S…
Speaker 1 (george wife)
I like it here.
