Volunteer Oral History Collectors
Do you want to literally make history? Do you like listening to people and hearing their stories of the past? Join our Tales of the Vale project and let Julia Letts, Oral Historian, show you all you need to know to produce oral history interviews of your own. You don’t need any particular experience to become one of our volunteers. You’ll get training, support, guidance and equipment and, if you need it, she’ll hold your hand every step of the way!
But don’t take our word for it! Hear from our current volunteers what they think of the project here
The first introductory day for new volunteers will be Thursday 2nd February 2017.
