The union was founded in 1895,[1] Initially, it restricted membership to the workers perceived as being the most skilled, the lasters and riveters, but gradually expanded to represent all workers in the trade in the area.[2] Membership of the union reached a peak of 9,527 in 1945, but declined to only 1,412 in 1995. In 1997, it merged with the National Union of Knitwear, Footwear and Apparel Trades.[2] General Secretaries1895?: Albert Taylor 1947: Robert Driver c.1970: Tom Whittaker c.1983: Michael Murray References1. ^University of Warwick Modern Records Centre, "Rossendale Union of Boot, Shoe and Slipper Operatives, 1968-1990s" 2. ^1 John B.
