Community charity Achieve Thrive Flourish (ATF) is happy to be working in partnership with Heritage Fund UK to deliver “Time Will Tell”, an exciting project helping local children, families and young people to discover lots of amazing heritage sites across the Basildon area.
The project follows ATF’s previous Heritage funded projects “We Were There” and “People Like Us”, which share the memories, experiences and hopes of local people across South Essex.
Time Will Tell runs until 31st August 2024 and includes a range of fun and interactive heritage “Discovery Walks” and activities at local places of interest, as well as some creative group sessions where participants can dive deeper into what they discover.
There will also be an opportunity to explore local heritage resources with partners such as the Wat Tyler Education Team, Basildon Heritage and Essex Records office.
Feel free to contact us for more information: heritage@atfcommunity.com
