New youth group - Darlington & Stockton Heritage Railway

Are you ready to make history? Join S&DR Young Producers! Starting 21 September, 1pm -3pm at Hopetown Darlington.

The following is from the Stockton and Darlington Heritage Railway 26mile project.

This will be a chance to create your own exhibitions, social media content and run events, based in a brand-new visitor experience attraction. We have connections along the original 26-mile Stockton and Darlington Railway line, with the opportunity for workshops and trips across the year. 

Whether you are looking for a career in heritage and museums, events and marketing, art and culture – or you simply want to share or learn more about our local history, S&DR Young Producers could be for you! Join us in celebrating our local heritage, developing skills, and fostering connections and experience within the heritage sector.

S&DR Young Producers is open to those in Durham, Darlington and Stockton, ages 16-24. (If you are not yet 16 but turn 16 before or on the 21st of September 2024 you may still apply.)

Please contact s&drvolunteering@darlington.gov.uk for an application form, or call Jess Woodley at 07867446086. If you have any concerns about transport to the venue, please contact us and we will see if we can help!

The deadline for applications is Friday 13th of September 2024 and are operated on a first come first served basis.
