Basildon Heritage is entirely volunteer run and relies on your donations to continue research and digitisation for future generations.
Donations play an important role in helping us continue our work. All contributions go directly towards the care, preservation, and sharing of Basildon’s history.
Funding is used to support the storage and protection of fragile archive materials, including photographs, documents, and maps, ensuring they are preserved for future generations. Donations also help us to purchase and maintain essential equipment, such as archival storage materials, digitisation tools, and display resources for our exhibitions.
In addition, your support enables us to expand our collection, develop new research materials, and continue offering talks, displays, and resources to the local community.
Every donation, no matter the size, helps us to safeguard and share the heritage of Basildon.
