Twenty one years of working together: a history of Central England People First

In 2010 Central England People First, with the guidance of the Research Group, was awarded a Heritage Lottery Fund grant of £48,000 to run an oral history project of its 21-year history. A member of the Research Group acted as a chair of the project's advisory group. The project produced a booklet of its research as well as a comprehensive website, sharing its findings and providing accessible 'How to …' guides on historical research.
