Other ways
Support is more than labour
Share your story
The most valuable contribution is the story itself. A memory, an object, a photograph — send it to us.
Contribute to the archive
We digitise old family photographs, audio and video recordings, and preserve them together with their stories.
Amplify our voice
Sharing the content, subscribing to the newsletter, telling a friend one story — it all grows the weave.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need experience to volunteer?
No. Willingness and a few regular hours are enough; a teammate accompanies you at the start.
How much time do I need each week?
Most roles run on 2–4 hours a week. You can flex your role when life gets busy.
Can I take part remotely?
Yes — the team is already spread across four countries; everything runs online.
I don't want my identity visible — can I still join?
Yes. Appearing in the credits is entirely optional; you can contribute under a pseudonym.
