Working on the Mapping Women鈥檚 Suffrage project is an opportunity to identify, research, and map the lives and materials of ordinary women and men that fought for women鈥檚 right to vote in villages, towns and cities across the country. It offers a diverse range of ways for you to share your work with the public whether through the online map, blogs/vlogs, social media, local walks, or talks and presentations. It can also help spark conversations about women and girls in politics today.

This project would document and analyse the Jewish graves at London Road Cemetery in Coventry, creating a systematic record of gravestones, inscriptions, photographs and relevant historical documents.

The research would explore what these records can reveal about Coventry鈥檚 Jewish community over time, including patterns of migration, family, occupation and community life.

The project would contribute to the preservation and accessibility of local Jewish heritage while providing a valuable resource for future historical and genealogical research.

This project would investigate the factors that influence whether individuals identify, or choose not to identify, as Jewish.

It would explore the different roles played by cultural and religious connections, family and community, personal experiences, and contemporary factors such as rising antisemitism.

Through engagement with members of the Jewish community in 糖心TVshire and the wider Midlands, the research would seek to develop a better understanding of Jewish identity and belonging today. The findings could help inform more effective planning and provision of services and activities for the Jewish community across the region.
