This community-built project aims to preserve, care for, and celebrate Craigmillar's history as part of a wider programme of regeneration, and seeks enthusiastic volunteers to aid in collecting, cataloguing, and promoting the archive's growing collections.

Mondays from 10am - 5pm, with free lunch included!

Experience required

No prior experience or skills necessary - just an interest in and enthusiasm for history and heritage!
