For the first time, the Heritage Open Days (HODs) programme will comprise a mix of in-person and digital events; communities will be able to celebrate the stories of the places and spaces that are important to them while staying safe and adhering to current social distancing measures.

We have rounded up a mix of digital and actual events taking place across the city.

With more than 30 events happening across the city there will be something for everyone, for the full list click here.

The Hawley Collection has just launched its interactive digital knife archive. The records have been digitised and for the first time people can access the names of 1000s Sheffield Knife Makers on your smart phone. To view the collection visit heritageopendays.org.uk/ More information on the project is available at hawleysheffieldknives.com
