Dounreay Reminiscence Group [Castletown]

01 March 2024, Starts: 13:00, Ends: 15:00

Venue: Castlehill Heritage Centre, Castletown

The Dounreay Reminiscence Group is a collaborative project run by Dounreay and Nucleus: The Nuclear and Caithness Archives. Over a two hour session, once a month, participants are shown photographs from the vast nuclear photographic archive. Archive staff will be on hand to capture any information relevant to the photographs as well as anecdotes and stories. This precious information will then be incorporated into the descriptions of the archives at Nucleus, meaning that future generations will benefit from both technical and social insight into Dounreay’s past.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are provided to all attendees and there is always time in between viewing photographs for attendees to catch up and reminisce.

Anyone with knowledge of, or a connection to, Dounreay is welcome to attend. This includes Dounreay employees (past and present) and their families and friends. There is no need to book on to sessions and we are always delighted to welcome new faces.Please get in touch if you have any other questions or queries, the staff at Nucleus are always very happy to help.
