More Than a Bundle Story is an oral-history and cultural-heritage project preserving the experiences of Turkish-speaking migrants who arrived in Britain from the late 1960s to the late 1990s. Many worked as tailors, machinists, cutters and garment workers, contributing to London’s thriving textile and clothing industry while helping build the Turkish-speaking communities that are now an integral part of the capital.

Through photographs, recorded testimonies, personal memories and everyday objects, the exhibition brings these stories to life, exploring migration, work, family, sacrifice, identity and belonging.

The project gives recognition to a generation whose experiences have often gone undocumented, ensuring their stories are preserved for their children, grandchildren and future generations.

Curated by Emel Sevinç, More Than a Bundle Story was previously exhibited in partnership with Hackney Museum, receiving a warm response from visitors and community members.
