Seeking volunteers for the Australian Paralympic History Project

[Robin Perry]

The Australian Paralympic Committee is seeking volunteers for the Australian Paralympic History Project. From their website:

"What is the Australian Paralympic History Project?

A project to capture, manage and preserve the history of the Paralympic movement in Australia in a way that is relevant, accessible and places the Paralympic movement within its broader social context.

We lack resources, so we:

INNOVATE – Find new ways to tell our story.

PARTNER WITH EXPERTS – We don’t have the necessary knowledge and skills, but others do.

ENGAGE OUR COMMUNITY – Our alumni have a key role because this is their story.

ENGAGE THE WIDER COMMUNITY – The broader community is touched by Paralympic sport and wants to contribute."

This is a mixed and very interesting collection which is, in part, being prepared for transfer to the NLA. 

Role descriptions have been emailed to ASA NSW branch members. Otherwise feel free to contact me and I will send them to you ([e-mail])
