The group was formed in March 2018 at Rotherwas. The first open meeting was held on International Women’s Day.  We wanted to bring together the many groups and individuals who were interested in the site's history, present use and future. We are a not for profit, non political group and all of our trustees are volunteers. 

So many people and groups have written, researched and promoted the history of Rotherwas and shouted loudly that a place which has played such a unique part in British history should be commemorated and the people who worked and lived there should be remembered.  We thank them and aim to continue their work.

We have successfully bid for grant funding from Hereford City Council and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (through Herefordshire Council). Please see the Projects page for more details about our events and activities.

The group's constitution is: "To bring together all those interested in the past, present and future of Rotherwas. To support projects that will promote a wider understanding of the Rotherwas area and its legacy"
