    • About UK Disability History and Heritage Hub

      The UK Disability History and Heritage Hub is a small group, created by PhD students with links to the heritage industry. We felt there was space for a network to allow those interested in Disabled, Neurodiverse, and D/deaf histories, from the ancient world to the modern era, to connect and collaborate. 

      This hub is open to researchers, students, archivists, museum professionals, activists and anyone in-between!

    • Discussion Board

      Why make the Hub?

      The hub was launched in April 2022, following an event exploring disability history in the heritage industry titled 'Invisible and Under-Represented? Disability History, Objects and Heritage.' Using this event as a springboard, the PhD and MA students involved in organising and running the conference wanted to create a platform to help facilitate these conversations in UK academia and heritage.

      The Team

      The students currently involved with running the hub are: Sam Brady, Isabelle Lawrence, Louise Bell, Alexandra Morris and Kirstie Stage.
