This page details which topics are currently being researched and which sections of the site are in preparation. A list of the general headings to be covered by the project can be found on the Project News page.

The project, “History of Rushden – Hearts & Soles”, is well underway, and there are about 1,400 pages live on the site. Anyone who wants to get involved can chose to help by interviewing, typing, researching, writing articles, collecting documents and pictures, or help us with administration. In order to present the researched material and pictures we are learning how to convert the files into web pages, and classes with a tutor are being held each week (click here for times and dates)

If you have any information and/or pictures of any of the above topics, or if you would like to suggest topics we should be covering, we would be very pleased to hear from you. We do not have anything like a complete archive, and much of the key information about the town and its history is in people's minds, cabinet drawers and albums. Unless we can capture and preserve it, much of that vital information will be lost forever.
