About the Project:

The project began as a university thesis in the Centre for Women’s Studies, University of York, UK but through this website we hope to interest both people who worked at Rowntrees and those who have only come into contact with the firm through its famous products such as Kit Kat and After Eights. By visiting the guestbook you will be able to add your own memories of Rowntrees and your own comments about the way we have written this history.

First we would like to thank Awards for All for providing the funding to make this project possible. Thanks also to Sara Maultby, York Museum’s Trust and the Borthwick Institute for helping us to find and for loaning us material for the site. Most of all, however, our thanks goes to all the women who have made this project possible - we hope that we have done justice to your fascinating life stories and that you enjoy the site.
