Community Histories

Valuing our State's Heritage

Lotterywest's Community Histories Grants aim to help communities record and share their history, as a way of maintaining their sense of identity and heritage.

A project may record the history of people living in a particular place or may focus on a community of interest.  It could look at a local theme or the local experience of a broader event or movement.

The history of an organisation, activity or event that made a significant contribution to, or had a significant impact on, your community will also be considered.

Grants can be considered towards the cost of research, writing, collation and production. We can also support the cost of obtaining professional advice to guide the early stages of the project.
