About

SWFTA is the official regional film archive for the South West of England. It holds the Westward and TSW television programme libraries as well as collections of donated amateur and professional films.

Archive footage of the South West

SWFTA is a registered charity which provides archive footage for broadcasters and film makers, community projects, public exhibitions and screenings, and members of the public.

Its material includes the news and programme libraries of Westward Television and TSW (Television South West), plus many donated film collections, both amateur and professional, dating back to the early 1900s.

The collections cover an area from the Isles of Scilly in the west to Bournemouth in the east and as far north as Gloucestershire, and includes all the county and unitary authorities in the South West.

The archive is staffed by a full time qualified Archivist, professional archive and technical support personnel, and a strong team of volunteers.

Testimonials

I have to say a massive thank you for your help in finding it for us. The clips are absolutely brilliant! On behalf of our volunteers and committee thank you for your assistance in making our forthcoming exhibition so valuable to preserving our community heritage.

These releases are wonderful and I hope there will be more in the future. ‘Walking Westward’ is a great record of the South West Coast Path from the seventies and a joy to see.
