Discover History

Discover History brings history to life for schools, museums and visitor attractions. We offer an interactive hands-on experience of history to people of all ages and abilities with opportunities to handle real and historically accurate artefacts and to find out more by talking to our friendly and knowledgeable historical interpreters.  We offer living history displays, school workshops, practical history sessions, specialist lectures, fetes, fairs and media work. Any individual ideas are a possibility.
