Want to promote your heritage offer but not sure where to start? Looking to promote your work without a budget? Time to engage new audiences? This workshop is for you!

About the workshop
This workshop will help you identify your target audience, promote your offer effectively, and write compelling press releases.

Discover local opportunities to showcase your work, and leave with the tools to connect your project with the people who matter most.

This session is a mixture of practical excercises, presentations, Q&A and discussion. The workshop is designed for anyone who works or volunteers in heritage and has a heritage offer they are looking to promote.

We are committed to ensuring our events are as accessible as possible. If you have access requirements, please email us at heritageplace@medway.gov.uk.

About the Medway Heritage Place programme

In November 2023, The National Lottery Heritage Fund named Medway as one of 9 places who will benefit from £200 million of investment as part of their 'Heritage Places' initiative. The initiative responds to local need and opportunity, supporting places to use heritage to build pride in place, inspire local communities and power regeneration. Find out more about the Medway Heritage Place programme here.

The Medway Heritage Place programme is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we are able to bring Medway’s stories to life in new ways for new audiences.

Other sessions
We are running a series of free skills development workshops throughout 2025 and 2026. More workshops will be announed throughout the year. Explore the full programme in our collection of Medway Heritage Place skills development sessions.

The workshops have been developed based on topics suggested by Medway’s heritage community. If you have an idea for a workshop, please email us at heritageplace@medway.gov.uk.
