Members are asked to note the content of this report. 3. ISSUES A. MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES 1. Staff Maintain establishment Lowis Lovell, Archivist, returned from maternity leave in early-April. Continue skill sharing and volunteer programme 20 volunteers continue to work remotely on projects, contributing approximately 325 hours during the quarter. This is significantly lower than the last quarter. Despite additional digitisation being undertaken during December, in anticipation of a tightening in Covid19 restrictions, it was not enough to satisfy the demand for resources by volunteers during a winter lockdown. One volunteer described volunteering as a ‘life line’ during this difficult period. Now that staff have returned to the office work is underway to digitise the next stage of their projects and provide new material to volunteers who have finished their allocation of images. A project launched last quarter to produce a finding aid for the 1877 diary of Tudor Crawshay has been completed.

The activities Woutlined in this publication are a sign of the extraordinary range and diversity of this important and ground­breaking research programme. They are also a sign of its commitment to outreach and engagement and to ensuring that communities themselves are closely involved in the research undertaken, not as objects of research, but as partners and collaborators. We’re delighted that the Festival is taking place in Wales and that a key focus of the next few days will be Welsh community life, the rich and vital work of community groups in Wales and their many exciting collaborations with academic researchers. With around 300 projects being funded through the programme and over 400 project partners and community organisations, the Festival can only showcase a selection of the range of research being undertaken. But, as you will see and we hope you will experience, the programme is a full and exciting one, involving performances, workshops, films, bazaars, demonstrations, guided walks, and much more. We hope you enjoy what the next few days have to offer.
