Get Creative – Herefordshire Young Historian Award
“Great great grandad took a Hereford bull to Market and won First Prize”
“My Nan rode a motor cycle in World War Two!”
Everyone has a story to tell and we’re collecting them. Herefordshire Libraries and Herefordshire Lore are running this year’s county-wide Young Historian Award.
We’re asking all 9-11 year olds (that’s school Years 5 & 6) to get creative with a family story. It could be a picture, a photo story, a collage, or . . . just make sure it’s no bigger than an A4 page and hand it in to your local library before Friday May 8. Or send it in here:
Herefordshire Young Historian Award 2026
It’s all part of the Herefordshire Histories Festival (9 – 25 May) and the winners will be announced at Hereford History Day, May 16 2026 at St Peter’s in St Peters Square, Hereford.
Don’t delay – start work today!
