Term: Contract ending 31/05/2027 Reference: HPM001 Are you looking for a varied, rewarding and creative role where you can lead a project that will celebrate the history of Age UK Lancashire over the last 85 years? If so, look no further! We are recruiting an experienced Project Manager to lead the implementation and delivery of our 85th anniversary heritage project, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The project in a nutshell: Our project intends to discover, record, document and make available the history of Age UK Lancashire, and older people’s experiences of ageing through the generations, since we were established on 11th December 1941. This will be encapsulated in a digital archive, film and book. For the future, we want to record young people’s perceptions and expectations of how they think ageing will affect them and create a time capsule to look back on in the years to come. During the project, we want to raise Age UK Lancashire’s profile, increase awareness of our work and celebrate our impact over 85 years. We want to use this milestone to encourage people of all ages to support our cause through volunteering, donations and legacies, inspired by the stories shared through the project. We want staff and volunteers to keep the story going by training them in recording oral histories and curating our ongoing history.
