CHARITY. LEGACY ARCHIVE RESEARCH. TRUTH RECOVERY.

Make History.

Follow the Paper Trail.

Nearly two generations after the signing of the Good Friday/Belfast Agreement, victims and survivors of the conflict in Ireland and Britain still hunger for truth and justice. Information is today's battlefield, and families are again on the front line.

The charity, Paper Trail, investigates our hidden history, discovers evidence that the states buried decades ago, and ensures it reaches the victims who need it most.
