Heritage Trust Network
Heritage Trust Network is a membership organisation full of people who have delivered amazing heritage projects against all the odds. Our mission is to help others do the same. We operate throughout the United Kingdom, drawing together and supporting the work of local heritage groups, whether constituted as building preservation trusts, community trusts or social enterprises.
Heritage Trust Network, predominantly run by professional volunteers, provides an invaluable platform for members by way of peer-to-peer support, knowledge sharing and skills development. Our guidance and advice helps groups throughout the lifetime of their project from start-up to post-completion.

The Heritage Trust Network’s Digital Heroes Project connected young volunteers aged 18-30 with heritage organisations across the UK to provide digital support. Partnering with youth insight agency BeatFreeks and The Audience Agency, the Heritage Trust Network recruited, trained, and matched 50 volunteer Digital Heroes with 50 of its members. The Digital Heroes had placements of 40 hours with the organisations they were matched with, supporting on tasks including updating websites, creating digital content, advising on social media campaigns, and devising digital fundraising or marketing strategies.
