Hello all (apologies for cross posting)

It's that glorious time of year - the Women's History Network Community History Prize 2018 is live and calling for entries!

The Women’s History Network is a national association and charity for the promotion of women’s history and the encouragement of women and men interested in women’s history. Established in 1991, the network reaches out to welcome people from any background who share a passion for women’s history.

This annual prize of £500 is awarded to the team behind a Community History Project by, about, or for women in a particular locale or community which has been completed between the 1 January 2017 and 31 May 2018.  It has been sponsored by The History Press since 2015.

Here's a short film featuring one of last year's winning projects: Monmouthshire Women Making Change from Abergavenny Museum: https://youtu.be/bBVX2NYWBWo

For details and an application form, go to http://bit.ly/WHNBookPrize2018

We encourage submissions from projects which include a strong element of community engagement or collaboration and which communicate a sense of heritage uncovered and learning shared by participants from outside the academic or professional heritage sector.

Projects can have creative or wellbeing outcomes, as well as research outputs, but the entrants’ activity must have led to the creation of something which is based on and communicates the findings of the group’s historical research, such as a production, artwork, website, documentary, pamphlet, heritage trail, book, exhibition, artefact or event.

We really look forward to receiving your submissions!
