Personal Histories – new location

HARN founder, Pamela Jane Smith, has sent the following announcement:

Following Pamela’s retirement the Personal Histories Project is now with Stephanie Moser, William Davies and Kate Rogers at the University of Southampton who will expand the format in a major new educational outreach programme.

To celebrate we’ve released Sir David Attenborough’s never-before-seen film.
