The Archive Service write to tell us…
We want to tell you about our latest project called ‘Lockdown memories’.
We are working with Libraries & Arts to create a lasting record of the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown measures and how it has affected the lives of Staffordshire people. We would like to collect as many reminiscences as possible which will help us to document Staffordshire’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, and may be used in the not too distant future for an exhibition, publication, or website. We are asking people to fill in an on-line questionnaire (a paper based one will be available at libraries) asking them to tell us their stories, and if they have any objects, photographs, drawings, paintings or documents relating to their lockdown experiences that they would be willing to lend or donate to the Archive Service or the County Museum’s collections. The on-line questionnaire is on the Archive & Heritage Service website at www.staffordshire.gov.uk/lockdownmemories.
It’s open to all so please do contribute and please could you share this with anyone you know in Staffordshire.
