Outreach team back on the road helping communities update Domesday

Pupils at East Wittering Primary School

The Outreach team have been back on the road, taking Domesday Reloaded into communities and schools across the country - and it's been a busy couple of weeks.

In partnership with Girl Guiding UK we have helped groups in Oxfordshire and Dorset update the Domesday Project archive that was collected about their area in 1986. We've also been working with primary schools across the country, including East Wittering Primary School and Salhouse Primary School to produce slideshows about how life has changed over the past 25 years.

In Lincolnshire, the Gainsborough Heritage Association have been getting on board, and in Cheltenham we joined forces with Community Service Volunteers and hosted a special Domesday Reloaded session at the Oakley Community Resource Centre Fun Day.

A big thanks to all who took part for your support of the project, we hope you've had as much fun as we have. A "special thank you" to Heather Bartlett from Witchampton WI for all her assistance in gathering updates and tracking down original contributors in Dorset.
