History, Health and Happiness at Heritage Doncaster

Heritage Doncaster’s History, Health and Happiness programme is funded by Arts Council England.

The programme aims to tackle isolation and improve wellbeing in four key areas of Doncaster. We use Heritage Doncaster’s collections as the basis for outreach activities across the Borough. Our activities share stories from Doncaster’s past and enable participants to share their memories, experiences and skills. We are making tomorrow’s history!

We strive to encourage participants to feel more connected to others in their community, create conversations and allow participants to make sense of the world around them.

Our activities are driven by the people to take part and represent the places in which they take place.

We work in:

Conisbrough/Denaby Main/Mexborough
Woodlands/Highfields/Carcroft/Adwick-Le-Street
Stainforth/Hatfield/Thorne/Moorends
Hexthorpe/Balby
