About: Judith Hoskins
A passion for local and family history research as a teenager initially led to me gaining a BA(Hons) in Library and Information Studies in Manchester. I then worked for twelve years in regional television in Bristol as a media librarian and programme researcher. More recently I have worked in the tourism and heritage sectors in Winchester, qualifying as a Green Badge tour guide for the city in 2016. In 2020 I gained the Institute of Heraldic and Genealogical Studies’ Higher Certificate in Genealogy and was awarded their Diploma in Genealogy in 2022, thereby achieving a long held ambition to qualify as a genealogist.
