Are you looking at those grants coming out and have no idea how to access them?
Do you have a community centre or group, a heritage site or museum and are really wanting to attract more public?
Are you interested in digital inclusion, the Big Digital Divide and how to include these in your work and projects?
We are here to support you moving forward!
Our aim is to work with local communities to explore, connect and sharing through heritage and culture, whilst providing support to organisations connected to heritage, with their collections and heritage assets.
We work in collaboration with independent museums and heritage, art and culture organisations, enabling them to engage and empower both individuals and communities.
We create projects for our clients offering a new way to:
- use the county-wide museum collections, sites, archives and learning resources to explore what heritage and culture really mean to the people and how it impacts our lives
- discover and share together what’s really important to us using heritage, digital inclusion and culture as the catalyst for improvement and development by keeping our heritage alive for the future
- engage local people from diverse backgrounds with heritage, culture, history, digital and art in ways that suit them and improve their lives, ascertaining specific community needs
- bring wider benefits to the heritage sector, using local heritage (tangible and intangible, including traditions and practices) to promote dialogue between the generations and ensure the transmission of valuable heritage
- raise awareness amongst younger generations about the importance of the past and of the traditions, stories and knowledge held by older generations.
- help churches, graveyards, community centres and associations to find new uses for their buildings and offers, in order to become sustainable and profitable.
- Preserving for the future – connecting people to heritage, identity and history through digital technology
