The Bletchley Community Heritage Initiative Project has been based in Bletchley Library for the last six years and is inspired by the lives of local people and the events that have shaped Bletchley’s past and recent History. It is a Living Archive Project where, involving people of all ages and backgrounds, memories are collected and then brought to life through books, exhibitions, Web pages, CD Roms and textiles. These become the focus for community celebration and pride.

The BCHI has brought old and young together in a way that has lead to new friendships and respect, and includes local school children researching the history of the community by interviewing older residents.

It involves the history of all the people of Bletchley, the ‘old’ villagers and the more recent estate dwellers, telling their stories and sharing their thoughts and experiences about current issues as well as the past.
