Friends of the Huntley Archives at LMA
The Friends of the Huntley Archives at LMA is a dedicated organisation committed to preserving and promoting the rich history encapsulated within the Huntley Archives. Located in the heart of London, this charity plays a pivotal role in ensuring that the invaluable records and materials related to the archives are accessible to the public and researchers alike.
Our mission is to support the London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) by raising awareness about the significance of the Huntley Archives, which document the lives and contributions of individuals and communities throughout history. We believe that understanding our past is essential for shaping a better future.
Through various initiatives, we engage with the community, offering educational programmes, workshops, and events that highlight the importance of archival research. Our volunteers are passionate about history and work tirelessly to assist visitors in navigating the extensive collections available at the LMA.
We also collaborate with historians, educators, and local organisations to create exhibitions and publications that showcase the treasures held within the Huntley Archives. By fostering partnerships, we aim to enhance the visibility of these historical resources.
As a non-profit organisation, we rely on the generosity of our supporters and members to fund our activities. Donations and membership fees directly contribute to the preservation efforts and the development of new projects that benefit the public.
Join us in our journey to celebrate and safeguard the heritage of our communities. Together, we can ensure that the stories of the past continue to inspire future generations.
