A series of heritage workshops for Enfield groups planning heritage projects
EVA is launching a £118,000 grants programme for Enfield community and voluntary organisations to run heritage projects that record, share and celebrate Enfield’s diverse heritage, cultures and spaces.
This series of workshops is designed to help you plan a local community heritage project – covering anything from cultural traditions and community histories to nature and industrial or transport heritage – and to help you apply for Enfield Our Stories funding.
Organisations that may want to apply for grants from this programme are strongly advised to book at least one workshop place.
- Book for as many workshops as you would like
- Each workshop will include a two-hour session on a specific heritage theme (with a short break in the middle)
- Each event will also include a presentation on how to apply for the grants and an opportunity to ask questions
These four online workshops will be presented by experts from Eastside Community Heritage.
