About us
Northampton Transport Heritage is a registered charity dedicated to preserving Northamptonshire transport history and making it accessible to the public. We currently preserve eight Northants operated or registered buses which are ex-United Counties and Northampton Corporation Transport. We host running day events and partner with local authorities and other organisations. We also take our vehicles out to schools, care homes and day centres as well as running various members-only trips throughout the year.
NCT Documents Archiving Project
Appeal for Financial Project Support
Our archiving room has been well and truly up and running for sometime now and our "sifting" continues, with more items being donated regularly. The facility is open to the public, by appointment.
Our biggest cost is the rent we have to pay to secure the room that houses our collection, it costs around £300.00 pm, to hire.
Add to that, things like digitisation of photographs and documents, and storage equipment then you can begin to imagine the significant costs of keeping our collection together and accessible.
One hears office rent is £3600.00 and is the target we are setting for this year, so, can you make a donation to the room hire costs to help us with this important project that will save important historical, NCT documents?
We would be extremely appreciative of any money you can spare to help us with this project. 🙏
You can donate via this link or contact us for other ways to donate using the messenger facility or email contactus@ntheritage.org

Our updates
Hello!
Firstly, a huge thank you to those of you who have donated so far to this project. We are very grateful you can see the worth in it. We have now collected all the documents from the old NCT depot offices and they are now in storage at our rented office at Doddridge Centre.
The sift proper starts next week where our archivist will organise some sessions amongst those whom have contacted him with offers of assistance. He will be in touch direct.
So, the total raised thus far will enable us to stay for six months in this office but we are hoping to raise more to stay longer whilst we apply for funding fo this project which will take some time.
We will need to purchase some archival equipment too, such as gloves and storage items which we will use a portion of this money for pending a successful funding application.
