Do you have any items related to the First World War? Would you like to share and preserve these objects and stories for future generations? Bring your diaries, letters, photographs, memoirs, objects or stories about your family’s experience in the war to Crosspoint at the University of Plymouth to be recorded and added to our freely-available, online archive.

Our volunteers will be on hand from 2pm to 6pm to welcome you and help record your story and photograph your objects. Subject experts from the University and the CWGC will be on hand to help identify objects and shed light on family stories.

Public Transport: Plymouth University is a 10 minute walk from the train station and served by the North Hill and City Centre bus routes.
Parking: There are several pay and display car parks in the city centre within easy walking distance, including Drake's Circus (PL1 1EA) and Mayflower West (PL1 1QU)

All entrances to the Roland Levinsky Building are step-free (or have lifts) and disabled parking is available at Drake's Circus car park.

The Commonwealth War Graves Foundation, working in collaboration with Oxford University have been awarded Heritage Lottery funding to create a digital archive of the First World War artefacts stored in bedrooms and attics across the UK.
