Local and Community History Month

May is Local and Community History Month!

The aim of the month, organised by the Historical Association, is to increase awareness of local history, promote history in general to the local community and encourage all members of the community to participate.

Activities happen across the UK and include trips, library exhibitions and local lectures. It is a great way for groups to highlight local history and for local people to get involved.

There is a searchable database where organisations can register their events to appear on the LCHM calendar. Don’t forget to register your event on the JUHS website as well!
