LOCAL HISTORY HUB LIVERPOOL
Local History Hub Liverpool is live!
We’re building something new and we’d love you to be part of it.
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Local History Hub Liverpool, a dynamic teacher-led network connecting schools, heritage organisations, and communities to explore the city’s rich and diverse local history.
The Hub is being led by a founding team made up of Ann-Marie Ferrigan (Schools Lead), Seren Davies (Community Lead), and Monika Rodriguez (Community Lead). Together, they bring expertise from teaching, higher education, archives, and community practice, and are shaping a collaborative space rooted in place, identity, and shared stories.
This page will soon showcase local projects, updates, and ways to get involved — so watch this space.
👉 Complete our expression of interest form to get involved in the hub.
Alternatively, email the Hub team at enquiries@localhistoryhub.org.uk.
