All of the images, documents and audio recordings of interviews posted on our website are subject to ‘no known copyright restrictions’, which means that the project is unaware of any current copyright restrictions on these materials, either due to the permission forms signed by the project’s participants or because an image’s term of copyright has expired.

In addition, a number of creative audio pieces have been developed for the project which use small extracts of music from film clips as fades, bridges or transitions. The project has been informed that the use of these clips falls under the principle of ‘fair dealing’. A listing of the film credits used in the audio pieces is included below:
