'Your Heritage' Grant Workshops

March, 2007

By Louise Ray

The National Council on Archives is running two one-day workshops designed for organisations developing archive projects anywhere in the UK.  Organisations should be planning to apply to the Heritage Lottery Fund's 'Your Heritage' grant scheme (grants between £5,000 and £50,000).

Date: Tuesday 6th March 2007, 9.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m.
Venue: The National Archives, Kew
Cost: £25 (incl. lunch)

Date: Thursday 15th March 2007, 9.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m.
Venue: MLA West Midlands, Birmingham
Cost: £25 (incl. lunch)

Course objectives are:

• To give participants a detailed understanding of criteria for 'Your Heritage' grants
• To provide participants with advice on completing the application form
• To give participants confidence to complete the application form independently

These workshops are open to anyone working in archives or with archive materials in the UK, but participants should have a specific project proposal in mind.

Places on these workshops are limited and will be allocated on a first come, first serve basis. The closing date for bookings is Wednesday 28th February.

To reserve a place on one of these workshops please use the booking form available from the website.
