Hello all,

Are you based in Birmingham, or nearby? Do you work with young people aged 16-24?

Would any of those young people value the chance to help influence how the heritage sector works with young people, and how HLF supports this?

As part of our wider consultation on HLF's role, vision and funding priorities for the next five years (see here<https://www.hlf.org.uk/about-us/news-features/we-want-hear-you-hlfs-future-direction-and-funding> if you haven't taken part already!), we're holding this event in Birmingham on  Tuesday 6 March.

Please do share with your young people, to encourage those that would be interested to register to attend. It's a great opportunity to really have a voice on this important issue.

Young People influencing heritage
Tue 6 March 2018, 17:45 - 19:45 GMT
Impact Hub Birmingham, 58 Oxford Street B5 5NR (map<https://goo.gl/maps/Sqn39LAEDW72>)

Are you aged 16-25? Do you want to have your say on how money from the lottery can best help young people connect with their heritage?

From people's memories to the history of music, from rare wildlife to the cultures that tell us who we are ...The Heritage Lottery Fund uses money raised by National Lottery players to help people across the UK explore, enjoy and protect the heritage they care about.

We are hosting an evening event on Tuesday 6 March in central Birmingham to explore:

* How heritage can make a positive difference to your life?

* What encourages you to get involved?

* How you can have more of a say in shaping the opportunities and experiences heritage organisations offer?

Your voice will help us decide how lottery players money is spent and what we should prioritise for the next five years 2019-2014.

Book your place via this event page to have your say by 5pm, Wednesday 28 February;

We can't wait to hear from you.

Snacks and refreshments will be provided (dietary requirements will be catered for).
