The Archive depends on money from outside the University of Sussex for many of its special activities. It gains income from royalties from publications, and, since 1991, the Friends of the Archive scheme has provided essential financial support for the Archive's activities. Without the support of the Friends scheme, the Archive would struggle to collect new material from ‘ordinary’ people documenting everyday life in Britain. You can donate online quickly and simply here.

Fundraising Campaign 2017-2018

This year, we are looking to increase the access and engagement of our collections through the production of outreach cases. These cases will be used by the staff team to work with community groups and school children unable to visit The Keep.
