HELP for people starting to research their family tree is on offer at a special session next week.

Members of the Berkshire Family History Society will be running an advice clinic for family and social historians.

It takes place at Reading Central Library in Abbey Square, where they run the Centre for Heritage and Family History.

Offering one-to-one sessions, advisors will help people make progress in their searches.

Booking is essential, but places are free. As part of the registration process, people will be asked to provide additional information which will help advisors carry out some preliminary research.

Places must be reserved by Thursday, August 11, and there are three 30-minute sessions available between 11am and 2.15pm.
