Susan R.
Chiang Mai · Records Conversation
I came in with a carrier bag of papers I had been putting off for about three years. The session was a lot calmer than I expected — mostly the educator asking questions and me thinking out loud. I left with a typed summary of four things to do, which felt completely manageable. I have done two of them since.

Prasong T.
Chiang Mai · Personal Records Workshop
The three sessions were spread across two weeks and that spacing worked well for me — enough time between each one to go home and actually apply what we had covered. The group was small, which made it easier to ask questions without feeling self-conscious about not knowing how to organise things better. The folder template has been very useful.

Chiang Mai · Household Archive Setup
My husband and I have accumulated thirty-five years of documents in this house and the archive programme gave us a structure we had never had. The educator visited every week for five weeks. By the third visit I could see where it was going and that helped. The final session with our daughter was genuinely moving — she now knows exactly where to find things and what they are.

Chiang Mai · Records Conversation
I was not sure what to expect. I had looked at other options that seemed to involve a lot of software and subscription services and this was different. One appointment, one educator, a clear written summary at the end. That is what I needed to start.

Nattaya C.
Chiang Mai · Personal Records Workshop
Good programme. The second session on labels and layout was the most practical — I came home and relabelled everything the same afternoon. If I had to say one thing that could be different, the first session ran slightly long. But the content was useful throughout and the educator was very patient.

Chiang Mai · Household Archive Setup
When I agreed to the programme I thought five weeks might be too long. It was not. There was a sensible amount of work in each visit and the pace felt right. The records map is sitting on my desk now. I know exactly where every important document is for the first time in probably twenty years.

How Participants Have Used the Programmes
CASE STUDY 01 · HOUSEHOLD ARCHIVE SETUP
A household preparing for a change in circumstances
THE SITUATION
A retired couple in Nimman had accumulated a large volume of personal records over several decades, stored across multiple boxes without a consistent system. One partner had recently received a health diagnosis and both wanted their documents in a state that a family member could navigate without difficulty.
WHAT WAS DONE
The five-week Household Archive Setup was used to inventory everything the household held, design a labelled folder structure, sort documents into the new system, and produce a printed records map. The final session was attended by the couple's daughter, who lives in Bangkok and was able to travel for the occasion.
THE OUTCOME
A fully labelled archive, a one-page records map, and a family member who can locate any document in the household within a few minutes. The couple described the programme as having removed a significant weight they had been carrying for a long time.
"We always meant to sort the boxes but never found the right time. Having someone come to the house every week made it possible."
CASE STUDY 02 · RECORDS CONVERSATION + WORKSHOP
From a first conversation to a working system
THE SITUATION
A participant who had recently retired and relocated to Chiang Mai from the UK had personal records from two countries stored in no particular order. He knew the records existed but could not say confidently where any given document was kept.
WHAT WAS DONE
The participant began with a Records Conversation to understand the scope of what he held and where the gaps were. The written summary from that session led him to enrol in the Personal Records Workshop two months later, where he built a folder system that addressed both the UK and Thai records.
THE OUTCOME
A two-country personal records system built around a simple folder design and a printed index. The participant noted that the gap between the conversation and the workshop had been useful — it gave him time to gather materials he had not previously located.
"The conversation gave me a plan. The workshop gave me something to show for it."
