Would you be interested in a Local History Archiving Project?

There is so much Local History locked in paper archives which is in danger of being lost for posterity. We hope to set up a U3A Group to review this information, scan it and index it so that it can be retrieved from a database.

Clearly this is a huge project and likely to take some time. However we hope to apply for funding to help with the scanning which will be a major part of the project.

We need to know that we have enough interest in this project to make it viable and to secure funding to help it go forward.

If you would be interested in reviewing materials and helping to identify what we have, please get in touch with Nigel or Vera.
