Thanks to our amazing volunteers, we are close to reaching the milestone of 200,000 names transcribed from the women’s peace petition! Everyone is welcome to join us as we head towards the next 100,000!
Interested in transcribing some names, but not sure where to start?
We’ve arranged a new series of online sessions, with representatives from our outreach team. The timetable is:
The session will be an introduction to transcribing names, a chance to discuss any problems that arise as you try to register or for you to ask any questions that you have as you start the work – you are welcome to come to as many sessions as you like until you feel comfortable with the process.
If you would like to give it a go before the sessions, are unable to attend, or if you have any questions at all at any time, you are welcome to contact us at the following email address: post@academiheddwch.cymru, and we can send you the link you need to register.
We also have a video which could help:

There is also a lot of guidance available through the transcription platform itself. If you do make a start, please make sure that you read the step-by-step guidelines and FAQs carefully before you begin as this will avoid you running into problems later.
