But the whispered prose combined with the magic of Peter's violin is something very special. It puts you in a better place for a while.– SBT visitor Paper Apothecary, the Beaney IWM North The Story Museum

  12. ‘History can be disruptive - The Orts Road area became a community in the first part of the 19th century when workers from the biscuit factory and the tin makers were re-settled here from the countrysideduring the industrial revolution. By the 1970s compulsory purchase and demolitionof the factory workers’ dwellings dispersed the community that had grown up here into new estates in Whitley and Dee Park and relationships were broken and disrupted again; the main employers left and the area became a ‘brand new estate’ with people being thrown together. For decades this new community’s chances have beenhindered by the abusive activity of drug dealersand this will take time to overcome. The present is a challenging time because with the removal of the gangsters, a new power vacuumexists and there is a fearthat control will slip to organised criminals supplying harder drugs; there are signs of this already. The area will be hindered by this, especially because there are now a high volume of single occupancydwellings and mental health problemswith few family dwellings so that a large proportion of residents are introspective and insular in outlook. As community activists, undertaking research into the historical narrative of this area has empowered us to see the area with a historical perspective. Households have much of what they need for achieving a greater sense of wellbeingand happiness and all that is lacking is social support and shared activity. There was a sense that when drug dealing was at its worst, residents felt the need to keep themselves to themselves. We minded our own business. The Happy Museum activities have brought some residents outand perhaps this could be a starting point. Plans are afoot to organise reunions of East Reading residents. We are also looking forward to sharing the results of our research with displays and literature and a presence at the East Reading Carnivalin June when large numbers of the community get together. This is certain to generate conversations, and so we are interested in taking this further and looking for opportunitiesto develop a history strand within future regenerationinitiatives in the area’ – Reading participant Environment & surroundings Reading Museum
