This folder includes the recorded audio of the interview along with a transcript of the recording and a photograph of Janet.
Remarkably Janet hand-wrote her entire PhD thesis at Greenham during a time when there were daily evictions.

Janet took part in many small and large actions and particularly remembers one blockade where the seated women were rushed by mounted police.

Hannah Schafer interviewed by Rebecca Mordan

This folder includes the recorded audio of the interview along with a transcript of the recording and a photograph of Hannah.
Hannah was at Blue Gate and starts by describing her time at Greenham as 'Fun. With a capital F. U. N.' She talks about vigilantes, her time in prison, evictions and infiltrations of the camp by one particular journalist. Her overriding memories are of the women she met, how being around women all the time created an experience that was markedly different to the mixed protests she joined afterwards and what made Greenham special to her and why it should be remembered by us all.

Kate Whittle interviewed by Emily Strange

This folder includes the recorded audio of the interview along with a transcript of the recording.
Kate recalls how she was brought up in a fairly politically aware household, which probably inspired her to be an active member of CND at school and subsequently join her first Aldermaston march at the age of 16. Through her CND group she heard about Greenham Common and went on to spend time there in the early 80s whilst a mature student. She took her 12-year-old daughter, Lucy along a few times but all she could remember was peeing in the woods! Kate never stayed at the camp for long because she had work commitments, however, she felt it important she was there for the big demonstrations and to feel solidarity with other people. She says it was the first time she really felt she fitted in anywhere and said there was a wonderful atmosphere. She also spoke about the soldiers at the base who she said looked terrified whilst women were trying to pull down fences. 'We were like their mothers and aunts', 'They had scared looks on their faces' as if they were the ones who were vulnerable. Being at Greenham strengthened her belief in feminism and it was overall a very formative experience. She described her journey at Greenham as being a 'Bizarre mixture of joy, humour and fury' and the interview strongly captures the fact that any woman can be involved in protest, even if they do not have experience in it.
Kate was interviewed by Emily Strange in 2019.

Kathy Trevelyan interviewed by Alice Robinson

This folder includes the recorded audio of the interview along with a transcript of the recording.
At the time of the interview, Kathy was an actor, a Women's Rights in Theatre activist and lived in London. She found Greenham through varied women's groups, and her first time there was for the Embrace the Base action in 1981. She spent most of her time at Blue Gate and Turquoise Gate. In this conversation, Kathy talks about the fun and creativity of protesting, such as the Halloween the women came out dressed as witches and pulled down the fence, the action where they posed as corpses, and the week she spent in Holloway Prison. Kathy has some powerful anecdotes about being arrested, her stint in prison and the women she met inside, most of whom were very much on the side of Greenham women.
Kathy was interviewed by Alice Robinson in 2019.
