Summary

Roots and Futures is a collaborative community heritage project based in Sheffield, UK. They aim to help to embed the perspectives of under-served communities in the city's heritage strategy and policy. They are partnered with Joined Up Heritage Sheffield (authors of Sheffield’s grass-roots led Heritage Strategy), Sheffield City Council, and a range of community partners.

Their outputs include community voices booklets, which summarise project findings and include community perspectives on the project. Their briefing document, in particular, makes recommendations to meaningfully embed diverse perspectives within heritage strategies, policies and practices.
