- A blog exploring Canvey Island, often overlooked but archaeologically and historically interesting - and well worth a visit.
- The south west team hosted the annual CITiZAN Turn the Tide conference on the SS Great Britain in Bristol on Saturday 8th October. Find out about the day and see some wonderful pictures.
- We've Storified our conference so you can visit - or revist - virtually!
- A blog written by one of our volunteers, Angus, after he visited the outreach event at Blyth in Northumberland.
- This year CITiZAN's South East team teamed up with the National Trust and Heritage Futures for two training events on the dramatically beautiful Orford Ness. We recorded features teetering on a shingle shelf, the remains of a WWI POW Camp and even squeezed in a tour of the Lighthouse. Read on for a brief history of Orford Ness and a summary of what we've been up to there.
