Hurrah! This was made for ARA SW looking specifically at accreditation as a driver of improvement - for services and individuals. It's only got a light sketch of programme content, but if you want some context and ideas, hopefully this will be useful. #ArchivesAccreditn

At the end of last week, @jeffddjames, our Keeper, visited The Box, Plymouth. Among other things, he took the opportunity to formally present them with their Archive Service Accreditation Certificate, as well as learn about their current work, and plans for the future.

The highlight of the trip, however, was undoubtedly presenting the Archive Service Accreditation certificate. The Box, Plymouth are doing some truly amazing work and we encourage you all to support their digital activities and make use of their onsite facilities.
