I am a heritage interpreter, writer, photographer and archaeologist.I am passionate about bringing the past and places alive to modern audiences. I enjoy the creative, innovative and social process of enabling people to communicate their messages about their heritage to their audiences. I also communicate my own interpretations and thoughts about the results of archaeological and historical research through words and photographs.I work on a variety of cultural and natural heritage interpretation and oral history projects for a range of local, regional and national clients. I work with community groups to manage, mentor or produce interpretive outputs on Heritage Lottery Fund projects. I also help groups apply for grants.I lead training workshops in heritage interpretation, interpretive writing, interpretive planning and use of interpretation media. Recent projects include Bedford River Valley Park interpretation (Bedford Borough Council), Calver Weir Restoration Oral History Project (Calver Weir Committee), Digital Memories of the Lune Aqueduct (Canal and Rivers Trust) and Walkley Remembered (Walkley Community Centre).I currently have four books in print - Ancient Peakland - Halsgrove, Sheffield's Golden Frame - Sigma, The Upper Derwent - Tempus, Walk Into Prehistory - Frances Lincoln.I am finishing a fifth - Walk Into the Dark Ages.I have a DJ mix album produced under my DJ name - Unity Dub's Voyage Into Paradise - and have even sat in a Second World War foxhole with Matt Baker.You can contact me on bill[at]inheritage.co.uk or via LinkedIn.Specialties: copywriting, project management, interpretive planning, photography, archaeological investigation, community archaeology, public talks, guided walks, volunteer management, historical research, audio trails, podcasting, books, concept development, consulting, content management, delivery, documentation, english, graphic design, interpretation, project design, publicity, radio.
