This practical workshop was organised in response to a growing demand from members of the public and representatives from local community groups for information and assistance on how best to explore and document their cultural heritage using approaches from both public history and digital humanities.

The aim of this event was to help empower representatives from locally based organisations to explore and share their local history and culture by raising their awareness of both digital tools and public history methods.
