| Welcome to Llafur: The Welsh People’s History Society.
Llafur brings together people from all
walks of life with a common interest in Welsh people’s
history. We organise a wide range of events looking at aspects
of our history and publish the journal Llafur.
Llafur believes that history does not just inform us of the
past, but that it can also illuminate our understanding of
the present, and to help shape our future. That's why many
Llafur events consider issues that, even though rooted in
the past, have relevance for our lives today.
Our journal publishes articles on all aspects of the history
of the Welsh people. We are proud of our record in modern
labour history and of being the principal journal in which
work in women’s history has been published in Wales.
However, we are always keen to extend our boundaries into
new periods and new approaches.
Llafur was established in 1970, and perhaps it is a sign
of out maturity (and also of the contribution that we have
made, and are continuing to make) that people are now undertaking
historical studies of us!
As well as still aspiring to help bring change through our
understanding of history, it is a place for enjoyment and
sharing as well as learning.
We invite you to join us, to read our journal and to come
to our events.
