Step below decks to uncover the untold story of Titanic’s firemen, trimmers, and greasers - the men who worked in blistering heat to power the great liner across the Atlantic. This talk reveals their gruelling labour, the danger and stigma of life in the stokehold, and the courage many showed on the night she sank.

Drawing on crew records, census returns, and the Titanic Relief Fund, it brings these forgotten men and their families back into focus, offering a vivid glimpse of the real working lives behind the legend.
