Introduction

The project offers the public the chance to develop their skills as Citizen Historians, which can lead to exciting discoveries of unknown stories.

By undertaking guided research, Citizen Historians will have the chance to uncover, for the first time, their own personal connections to WW1.

To learn how you can become a Citizen Historian take a look at our Getting Started guide.
