Looking back to look forwarD
Collective Encounters celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. Since 2004 we have been working across Liverpool City Region and beyond to centre the unheard stories of the communities who shape the region’s grassroots culture, through a time of huge political and social change.
Using money raised by National Lottery players, The National Lottery Heritage Fund supports projects that connect people and communities with the UK’s heritage. Radical Retrospectives is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. The project, will document and contextualise the stories of marginalised individuals and communities within the Liverpool City Region, and look at the next chapters for the future.
