Create Place Heritage & Digital

The Co-Creation and Placemaking Programme for Heritage and Cultural Leaders

  • Are you passionate about your region and how heritage sites and organisations can transform the lives of those communities around you?
  • Are you leading heritage or cultural activities and have more than 2 years of experience?
  • Are you part of a heritage organisation, a history and heritage society, a heritage trust, or aspiring to shift your cultural or creative work into one that draws more deeply from the rich history of the place?
  • Do you feel heritage is a driver for placemaking and digital tools might help you have more impact in your heritage work?
  • Are you working in the library or heritage sector with aspirations to lead on projects involving history, arts and digital?

If any of the above fit your career aspirations, this programme might suit you.

CREATE PLACE Heritage & Digital is a place-oriented leadership development initiative focussing on advancing leadership. The programme will involve executive-leadership training, roundtable challenges and 1:1 coaching to develop knowledge and provide new skills. It will cover a range of topics, including intangible heritage at risk, working with heritage trusts, digital skills, 100-year planning, strategic partnership work, heritage business models, tools for participatory governance, inclusion and access, executive coaching and participation in shaping buildings, stories, and intangibles.

This programme is free for successful applicants, thanks to the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
