The Broken Futures Project was funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund in 2019 and seeks to explore the history of ‘ordinary’ men* in Berkshire who were charged with buggery/indecent assault/gross indecency 1861-1967 by training community volunteers in archival and genealogical research. The project is managed and delivered by Support U, the LGBT+ support and wellbeing charity in the Thames Valley. The project is supported by our fantastic partners, Berkshire Record Office, the Museum of English Rural Life, the University of Reading and Reading Museum.
