Group talks and visits
We offer talks, film presentations and visits to Hampshire Record Office for local groups
Talks
For 30 people or more. Our talks include:

Most talks are on PowerPoint, usually lasting between 45 minutes and an hour and delivered by one of our volunteers. We do not provide talks on the local history of a particular locality.
