Our 'Meet a researcher' service in Canvey Library is currently unavailable - we are looking for volunteers! The library is still a drop off point for your memories & contact details.

The Canvey Community Archive ( CCA)

The Canvey Community Archive group was formed in 2006 in partnership with Essex County Council Libraries, The Essex Record Office, East of England Museums, and the Libraries and Archives Council. It is run by the people of Canvey.

The Canvey Community Archive takes the form of an internet site, so that its content is available from home computers and the People's Network in Libraries around the county.

The Community Archive gathers memories as well as copying photographs and other documents that relate to the history of the Island. Canvey residents are being asked to share their memories and photographs of life on the island.

Committee Members:

Chair: Sue Hampson
Webmaster: David Bullock
Treasurer: Mark Graham
Secetary: Barbara Roycroft
Researcher: Graham Stevens
Researcher: Stephen Bullock
