USH will provide opportunities for site tours/visits and hands-on engagement using the heritage of these local sites as a vehicle for promoting community research, genealogy, learning and skills development. Derry City Cemetery & Strabane Cemetery will also feature as part of the site tour and engagement programme. Unlocking Silent Heritage is coordinated by Creggan Enterprises in partnership with Friends of Derry City Cemetery, Guildhall Press and Hive Studios and is funded through Derry City and Strabane District Council’s PEACEPLUS Local Co-Designed Action Plan (under the Community Regeneration and Transformation theme).
