FREE Sessions

These 3 sessions complement each other for family campaigns and research so we advise participants to consider all 3 together.

Legacy Archives

Learn about the archives in your area, some of which you may walk past every day, and yet they are open to all of us. Examine documents and learn what to look for. Hear how you can use the Freedom of Information Act.

Oral History

Learn about best practices when interviewing and recording friends and family for your research. Ensure the interviewee is in control at all times. Certified training is also available for victims and survivors' groups.

Workshop

Paper Trail is free to discuss family reports and campaigns, and what archives could help your work. These workshops can discuss either general or particular issues - depending on the wishes of the family group.

PRONI Tour

Normally we also incorporate a trip to the Public Records Office Northern Ireland [PRONI] in Belfast but this has been discontinued due to concerns for COVID-19. We will be restarting these invaluable tours when we are safe to continue.
