Don't close it. Outsource it if you must, but this is a vital resource not just for Worcestershire, but the rest of the country and the rest of the world too.

I have been using the archives for 40 years and I feel strongly that the archives should remain as accessible as possible for anyone wishing to research the county's history and heritage. It is especially important that the younger generation should have the opportunity to consult our historical resources.

As someone who has used the archive and been thanful for its assistance in researching Worcester’s rich history, I understand how tragic its loss would be.

Not only do we have to preserve Worcestershire’s history but it also needs to be easily accessible with the helpful knowledgeable staff to guide us. Worcestershire Archives is a wonderful resource to the community, and for researchers. It needs to be supported.

Once lost these invaluable archives will not be reconstitutionable, old documents are our links to the past and should be available to all

I realise that budgets are tight and that savings are required but, is this 60% cut necessary or is it just an easy option?

Why would anyone want to cut this valuable resource? I spend many hours at The Hive and hope to be able to further my research in the future. The staff are very knowledgeable and willing.
