Support for Local History and Archaeology Groups
We offer a wide variety of support to local groups from fieldwork to project management advice, from writing up to training. Click above for more details.
Courses
We deliver courses about archaeology at two different locations. At Castleford on Friday mornings and at Riccall on Tuesday mornings. Drop me an email if you would like to know what we are studying at the moment.
Talks
Jon is happy to deliver illustrated talks about his work to a wide variety of audiences either by zoom or in person. If required he is able to bring his own projector and screen. For information about current fees please get in touch.
Finding Finance
We are keen to help you and your group or school find the funds to support your archaeological ad(ventures). Often this means making a grant application or two which can seem quite daunting. We want to help! Please talk to us about how we can support you in finding the funds to finance your archaeological activities.
Starting you own Group
If you are not a member of a local history or archaeology group you may want to start one. We can help with advice about contacting like minded people and creating a group with a constitution and a bank account. You need these things to find that finance!
Schools and Young People
We also offer archaeological experiences for schools and youth groups at reasonable rates. In particular we offer the ability to fit what we deliver to each school's teaching ambitions importantly the agenda is yours - YOUR needs and YOUR ambitions. Click above for more details.
Access for All
Everyone should have the chance to learn about the past but many think it's only for an elite few with qualifications. We passionately believe that archaeology should be accessible for all. Click above for details.
You name it we can do it with archaeology!
