Whilst we are oi the subject of archives, can I alert colleagues to the fact that the archive of the National Community Development Project, the last national anti-poverty initiative in the UK (1968-1978), and including both national and local documentation, photos etc, is now secure at the library of the University of Warwick. That it has a secure home despite the attempts of the Home Office to suppress it and the incompetence of the librarians at the North London Poly who, despite my clear instructions as to its preservation, dumped it all in a skip (whence it was rescued by a passing politically alert social worker), is something to be celebrated. If any former colleague who worked for or with the CDPs has any material they would like to deposit please contact myself (not at this email address, see below - a sign of the times in HEIs; and Professor Mick Carpenter [log in to unmask] If anyone wishes to consult it, again please let us know so we can keep track of its usefulness.
Thanks and la luta continua for 2019.

Subject: SPA Archive - papers, conference programmes, photos....
Do you have any SPA memorabilia? As part of our celebrations of 50 years of the SPA we are looking for material to add to our existing archive.
If you have any documents, in particular for the period from 1967 to 1990, please consider donating to the archive. Please contact Robert Page, University of Birmingham ([log in to unmask]).
Now is the time to clear out your cupboards!
Many thanks,
Markus Ketola
