Contribute to Rites of Passage

As of early May 2022, most volunteering has now ended.

People are still welcome to share their experiences of the sound system era in Bradford by contacting the project hosts at projectsmobe@gmail.com, or via the Contributors’ Agreement Form below.

Our Rites of Passage Archive would be nothing without the images, videos and stories shared with us by members of the local Bradford community.

If you are interested in becoming a Contributor to the Archive, please fill out the form below. All submissions will be credited to the original contributor, and hosted on our platform for the public to enjoy.

Feel free to get in touch if you would like to discuss your contribution with us first.
