Celebrating Young Cultural Creators

work have a look at The Trenches 1914-1918. To hear more

Forty Years On Project
Based around our Peterborough Development
Corporation Archive, the Forty Years On Project will capture the
modern history of Peterborough and present it back to the
communities that have taken part. A team of volunteers will
work with original archive documents and be involved in oral
history and theatre based activities to bring the City’s
contemporary history to life. For more information visit the
local studies and archives news
