People with an interest in Sittingbourne and Sheppey’s history are being invited to learn how to use technology to explore it.

A second Swale Heritage Forum is being held at the Blue Town Heritage Centre, Sheerness, on Saturday, November 14.

Visitors can expect to hear from a range of speakers, including from the University of Kent, Brighton Museum, the Heritage Lottery Fund and Dover Arts and Museums.

A free networking lunch is also being provided to give people the opportunity to meet the speakers.

Allen Whitnell, chairman of the Swale Museums Group, which is organising the workshop, said: “This is an opportunity for all of us to gain by engaging with each other in the heritage community.

“We are all made stronger for working with and learning from our friends in the various groups around Swale.”
