Historic England is inviting applications from youth groups who want to explore fascinating local stories and have innovative ideas for place markers to commemorate them so these histories can be shared with the whole community and beyond.\u00a0 There is funding available for up to 15 projects across England. The successful applications will be chosen with the help of Historic England\u2019s panel of Young Advisers, aged 18 to 25.<\/p>\n<p>History in the Making was originally launched last year in northern England, with Historic England funding 11 projects. The resulting place markers included an audio celebration of South Tyneside\u2019s mining heritage; a mural commemorating Rotherham\u2019s Slovak and Roma communities, and a pizza oven inspired by the people who lived on Hadrian\u2019s Wall in Newcastle.<\/p>\n<p>Ellen Harrison, Participation and Learning Director, Historic England said:<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Heritage has the power to improve people\u2019s lives and can give local communities a sense of identity. We are looking to fund projects in areas of deprivation that will empower young people to tell inspiring stories and create a lasting legacy that will instil local pride.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/historicengland.org.uk\/whats-new\/news\/history-in-the-making-funding-announced\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more&#8230;.<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>image for illustration: Open Government Licence v3.0 Young people living in deprived areas will be helped to explore and celebrate untold local histories thanks to the launch of a national grant programme by Historic England (HE).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40719","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sector-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40719","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=40719"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40719\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40720,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40719\/revisions\/40720"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=40719"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=40719"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=40719"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
