Offri un brew a Jenna Goodwin

This isn't my job; it's my passion—a labour of love. Everything I do, from exploring Stoke-on-Trent’s rich history to creating art, writing articles, and filming videos, comes from a deep desire to keep our city’s heritage alive. But keeping this passion alive requires time, effort, and resources. That’s why I need your support—not just to help me continue this work, but to ensure Stoke’s stories reach as many people as possible. Whether it's watching and sharing my videos, reading and passing along my articles, or supporting me here, every bit of help makes a difference. Together, we can make our fascinating history accessible to all.

Born and bred in the heart of Stoke-on-Trent, Jenna Goodwin isn't just an artist; she's a storyteller of the city's soul. With her camera or pencil in hand, she weaves tales of cobbled streets and smoky chimneys, forgotten factories and vibrant communities. A self-proclaimed "Red Haired Stokie," Jenna's deep-seated love for her local area resonates through every piece of her work.

Her love for heritage spills over into her writing, where she blogs as "The Red Haired Stokie," unearthing the hidden gems of Stoke-on-Trent's past. From secret tunnels beneath the city and surrounding areas to the poignant stories of forgotten history, Jenna brings the past alive with captivating wit and a historian's meticulous eye.

She lives in the rolling hills of the Moorlands with her partner Natalee, 2 dogs, 3 horses, 3 chickens and too many cats to count. Most of their animals are rescue animals. 

Jenna embodies the spirit of Stoke-on-Trent: a blend of grit and grace, heritage and heart. She is also a keen metal detectorist, unearthing hidden treasures and uncovering glimpses of history. 

Through her art, she invites you to explore the city's hidden corners, to hear the whispers of its past, and to fall in love with the beauty in even the simplest of subjects.
