The Old Guestbook
Messages left by visitors to the charity's website between 1998 and 2000.
From the archive. Around 1998 to 2001 this web address carried the website of a small UK relief charity. This page keeps one of its items as a historical record. Relief Weekly, which publishes the site today, is an independent magazine with no connection to that charity; its name, the names of its staff and supporters, addresses, telephone numbers, registration details and donation forms have been removed, and lost pictures have been replaced with credited photographs of the places concerned. Nothing here is a current appeal.

The sign-up form collected names and addresses; it has been removed and the guestbook no longer accepts messages.
The messages themselves are kept, without names:
