Green Guides and Toolkit

The Green Pledge Project has created nine research guides, each designed to provide a starting point for your research and help you to explore themes from the project further. They also aim to help develop your own skills to explore other collections and themes in the Archives. 

Each guide contains a brief background to the topic, has examples of relevant documents from the collections held here and across Gloucestershire, and more importantly will give you handy hints and tips to get started with your research.
