HERITAGE AND HISTORY
IN PRACTICE

Enhancing Research Culture through Co-production and Public Participation

In 2026, UK Research and Innovation is funding a new project at the University of Lancashire that will bring members of the public together to co-produce an exhibition using their own family history stories and heritage materials, with academic expertise and support from Project Lead Dr Brandon Taylorian.

The project aims to develop a model of 'participatory heritage' that prioritises the community–university relationship in historical research and to foster local community identity.

Please join us for the Exhibition Launch Event starting at 6pm on Wednesday 24th June at the University of Lancashire's Student Centre in Preston.
