Discover our history with Resonate
Read about our 72 year history in our new booklet, thanks to National Lottery players and the Foyle Foundation
We have a new history booklet for you to download in an accessible PDF, available here.
Learn about our founder, Leonard Cheshire and how he came to start our charity in his own home in 1948. You can also read about our exciting sound heritage project, Resonate.
Our digital volunteers continue to transcribe our sound recordings and so far have completed over 170 transcripts. Episode 2 of our Resonate podcast is now available on Anchor where you can listen to some of their discoveries. Look out for Episode 2 on YouTube soon and download a transcript here
We plan to release a selection of the digitised sound recordings on our YouTube channel at the end of the year, and will announce them on our news page.
