Over the next six months Sporting Heritage CIC are working in partnership with Art Fund UK to deliver a programme of digital activities to help those with sporting heritage collections tell their story online and improve their digital skills.  

Although creating digital content can seem daunting, this project hopes to show that it can be a relatively simple way to create engaging content that will attract new audiences and shine a light on hidden stories.

They will:

• Create a bank of short videos and podcasts to share sporting stories from a range of sports at all levels
• Upskill those who want to successfully share their sporting collections and stories online by creating a tutorial on how to create digital content
• Host a webinar and Twitter hour on digital content development
• Build upon the brilliant online profile Sporting Heritage has already developed to share as many digital stories as we can using the hashtag #yoursporting story.

The team

The project will be delivered by Belinda Scarlett and Kate Turner who have worked in the sports and heritage sector for a number of years and are passionate about making sporting heritage available to all.

This project is open to all those that have a sporting story to tell from sports museums to private collectors and community sports groups.
