Initially the focus was on collecting photographs. Many were copied and returned to their owners, and notes about them were made and indexed. Later interviews were recorded interviews with elderly Islanders, and a number of people wrote memoirs to add to the collection. The Trust's premises are in The Dockland Settlement, which is one of the Island's oldest community centres. The collection is open to the public on a part time basis, and may be visited out of normal hours by appointment. The trust also publishes organises exhibitions, runs local history classes and arranges open days when former residents of the Island return to reminisce. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINK |
