The Bury New Road Lollipop Lady’s Story

Life is grand on Hope Street for Roisin Ox...

The Bury New Road Lollipop Lady’s Story

Roisin Ox is half American, half English; half Jewish, half Catholic; and she works as a lollipop lady helping orthodox Jewish children get to school in Broughton, Salford.

“I’m an immigrant but don’t know where to and where from…”

This engaging little film, made with filmmaker Rafe Conn, is Roisin’s story, that came out of the Bury New Road project’s Shoot Your Own Heritage sessions at Prestwich Library.

She loves working on Hope Street, just off Bury New Road, and the ‘beautiful ideas’ it conjures…
