Explore Your Archives: Drop-in Q & A Surgery

Do you want to start a family history research project, but aren’t sure where to begin?

Or perhaps you would like to know more about the collections we care for, and how you can access them?

As part of Explore Your Archive, Somerset Archives and Local Studies are running a free, drop-in surgery to introduce you to our searchroom, our resources and the ways it can help you with your research.

Come along to speak one-to-one with one of our archivists and receive specialist advice, or join a themed group to gain an introduction to topics such as family history or house history.

Free, drop in (donations welcome).

This event is part of Explore Your Archive Week 2025 running from 29 Nov to 7 Dec.
