What we did in 2010

  • BBC2 Documentary Film: A Life Without Work

The Rowntree Society supported BBC2 during the making of this 2-part film that compared unemployment in York today with the situation 100 years ago, when Seebohm Rowntree wrote his important study of Unemployment, as a follow-up to his seminal study on Poverty.

The presenter, Richard Bilton, attended the reception to mark this programme as a guest speaker.

Copies of the programme are available through all the branch libraries in York.
