You would normally come into contact with the Finds Liaison Officers when you record your finds, or if they visit your metal detecting club – but they are also responsible for promoting the work of the Portable Antiquities Scheme amongst detectorists, archaeologists and the general public through exhibitions, outreach and the media. This can involve giving talks to local history groups, schools , higher education and various other outreach areas.
