What is the Ceredigion Local History Forum?
The main purpose of the Forum is to act as an umbrella group, bringing together all the societies and organisations who are involved with local history, heritage and family history within the county of Ceredigion (formerly Cardiganshire), with the aim of raising the profile of local history within the county.The forum provides a route for the member organisations to publicise their activities to each other, through the website and other means. See the diary of events - these are normally open to non-members.
The Forum also arranges open meetings, usually a couple of times a year, with guests who speak on a range of interesting topics. The meetings give members from different organisations an opportunity to meet and talk face to- face and to exchange ideas and experiences.
If your organisation would like to join the Forum please complete this application form (PDF) and send it, with the subscription (currently £10 p.a.) to the Secretary.
You can also join as an individual for £5 p.a. Please use the same application form.
