A cream built brick church interior. There is a large rose window and a miners banner underneath. Wooden pews can be seen. The ceilings are wooden.

The altar of a church with a green Xmas tree with red decorations placed in the middle. There is a high stained glass window and arches on either side.

Iโ€™ve had a lovely day, exploring churches across Durham with colleagues including @hjfeathers.bsky.social

What a treat.

Heritage creates a sense of place, thatโ€™s why the National Lottery proudly supports projects - Helen Featherstone Yorkshire has a rich and diverse heritage. From impressive natural landscapes, and stunning stately houses, to marvellous museums, and a host of community stories and traditions from across the world....

It the National Lotteryโ€™s 30th birthday! Over the past 30 yearโ€™s @HeritageFundNOR has awarded ยฃ2 Billion to over 12,200 projects. I have taken a moment to reflect on the impact of this on people and communities in the @yorkshirepost
