To coincide with Shirley Baker’s new exhibition Women, Children and Loitering Men at the Photographers’ Gallery in London, we’d like to see your photographs of life in the 1960s. Baker is though to be the only woman practicing street photograpy in Britain during the post-war era, and the new exhibition specifically focuses on the urban clearance programmes of inner city Manchester.
Do you have photographs from the sixties you would like to share with us? Maybe you were witness to a similar urban clearance programme or a regeneration project, that has since made the neighbourhood you grew up in unrecognisable? If you have an image from the era that evokes memories and experiences, share them with us by clicking on the blue ‘Contribute’ buttons. We’ll feature the best of them on the site.
You can also download the GuardianWitness app or look for our assignments in the Guardian app and search for ‘GuardianWitness assignments’ – and if you add it to the homepage – you can keep up with all our assignments. If you’re on Instagram you can contribute using #GuardianWitness
