We also have\u00a0a waiting list of potential new volunteers, who would like to help us to research full parish histories. Their help would enable our work to progress faster, but the Trust does not at present have the financial resources necessary to provide the support they would require.<\/p>\n<p>If you think this is a worthwhile project and would be willing to help us financially,\u00a0you can donate to Leicestershire Victoria County History Trust (registered charity no. 1128575) online, by using the button to the right of this text.
