A New Local History Hub for Warrington

We’re delighted to announce the launch of a brand-new Local History Hub for Warrington, supported by Culture Warrington. This marks an important step in the continued growth of our UK-wide network – a teacher-led, grassroots movement connecting classrooms with the people, places, and histories that make local heritage meaningful. Each hub is built collaboratively by schools, heritage partners, and community organisations, with the aim of enriching the curriculum, strengthening community identity, and celebrating a shared sense of belonging.

Exploring Warrington’s Industrial, Civic, and Cultural Heritage

The Warrington Hub will bring together schools, museums, archives, and community groups to explore the town’s rich and varied past — from its industrial heritage and transport links to its civic history, cultural traditions, and the stories of the people who have shaped the town over time.

Led by Amanda (Manda) Moore, a heritage professional with over 30 years’ experience in museums, heritage, and education, the Warrington Hub will support teachers and pupils to connect learning with local stories, landmarks, and collections. Manda’s background in archaeology, teaching, and public engagement places her at the heart of this new opportunity to make Warrington’s history even more accessible to the communities who live it every day.
