Help Us Celebrate Women in Portsmouth's Maritime Industries

Do you have a story to share about a woman who worked in Portsmouth’s maritime industries?

Perhaps you, your mum, nan, auntie or another family member worked in the dockyards, shipyards or historic Colour Lofts.

As part of Colour Loft we’re collecting stories, memories and photographs celebrating the women who helped shape Portsmouth’s maritime heritage.

Your contributions will help us celebrate the women behind the work, bringing their stories to life throughout the project campaign and at our live event, taking place as part of the Portsmouth 100 grand finale at Portsmouth Guildhall, 8–10 January 2027.

If you've got a photograph or story to share, get in touch at: hello@triggerstuff.co.uk
