Working with you every step of the way, we ensure that our research is tailored to suit your needs, so you get the most out of our time together.

​

How does it work?

​

Send a message using the contact form and include your research idea.

We will set up a free video/phone consultation in which we will discuss what we can do for you and how much time the project is likely to take.

​

Once we have agreed on a research plan and time commitment, we'll get to work!

The findings of a research project can be presented in a bound personalised book - this will be different to the written research report as it will be presented in a narrative form, yet still include all the valuable information found during the research project. Photos from your own collection can be included in this book.

If you have any handwritten documents such as old letters, birth certificates, etc, we are happy to transcribe them for you.​
