Coronavirus update

Gloucestershire Family History Society @ the Heritage Hub has also closed their service until further notice. 

Gloucestershire Registration copy certificates service is also suspended.

Every effort will be made to continue offering essential services such as access to records for legal reasons. 

Look out for updates from the archives on social media and online.  If you have a few minutes you might like to #ExploreYourArchiveAtHome.  You can search our collections online or browse or contribute to our online mapping resource Know Your Place

Accessibility statement

The Heritage Hub is a welcoming and inclusive space for all, including disabled people, and older people with dementia or sensory impairments. When we planned the Heritage Hub we sought advice on access issues, and we have included the following in our design:

  • Level access to all areas 
  • A wheelchair accessible toilet
  • A mixture of soft and hard seating in the coffee lounge and entrance foyer
  • An extra large screen for training, presentations and events for those with impaired vision
  • A hearing loop for those who are hard of hearing
  • Clearly defined spaces, using lighting and colour, to help people with dementia navigate the building
  • Acoustic chairs for those who may be hard of hearing
  • Blue Badge parking 

Staff are trained in how to help if you require additional support to access our resources – please just ask if you need some assistance.

Guide dogs and other assistance dogs are always welcome.

Please tell us if you think we can make any improvements to our access; email us at archives@gloucestershire.gov.uk
