Friends of The National Archives

The Friends of The National Archives is a charity that supports us to look after more than 11 million documents of national, cultural, academic and historical importance. They also help create a greater public awareness of these documents.

The Friends provide funding towards many document, education and outreach projects at the archives. The National Archives relies on the support of the Friends to fund many important projects, that would otherwise not go ahead.

If you’ve benefitted from using The National Archives for study, family history research, or even to visit a free exhibition, please consider joining the Friends for just £30 a year.

 

All proceeds go towards supporting the work of The National Archives.
