Abstract
The UK Web Archive (UKWA) has been archiving the nation’s online life for two decades. Since our establishment in 2004, we’ve captured a rich and varied record of the UK on the web. From documenting general elections, Brexit, and the COVID-19 pandemic, to preserving everyday websites that reflect our culture and communities, the UKWA provides a unique snapshot of our digital heritage. In 2026, the UK Web Archive celebrated twenty-one years of curating the UK Web Space. The very first curated collection the UK Web Archive created was in January 2005. The collection aimed to document the UK response to the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami that hit coastal regions of many countries in Southeast Asia on 26 December 2004. The Digital assets for “21 Years of Curating the UK Web Space (2005-2026)” anniversary contains five documents:
