Earlier this month we made a visit to the Kenyan High Commission @kenyamissionuk in London. Our archivist @consularchivist met with staff to return archives from Shimo-La-Tewa Prison to Kenya. The records are now at their permanent home in the Kenya National Archives.

Long I’ve wandered to the churches of England. Past fields, marsh, and woodland. Beyond suburban estates and rushing commuter roads… I’ve shot 40k photos in those years. Here are 10 of my favourites down the years 1. The Church of St Mary and St Barlok, Norbury, Derbyshire

Thank you to everyone who has donated to our appeal to buy a mobile library for Ukraine. Every little helps and I will be enormously grateful if you are able to donate or share the funding campaign through your networks crowdfunder.co.uk/p/mobile-l…

Today’s #Archive30 is #ArchiveMyths We always thought our Girls’ Dux board was just inspired by Charles Rennie Macintosh’s style of lettering but a bit of digging by one of our volunteers and she found out it was actually created by him in 1906! #HutchieHistory
