Adopt a Monument is a scheme to help communities become actively involved in the conservation and interpretation of their local archaeological and cultural heritage sites.
Our ancient history has bestowed on us a wealth of monuments that need care and attention to ensure that they survive for future generations to enjoy.
Through the Adopt a Monument Scheme expertise, mentoring and support is provided to encourage communities to ‘adopt’ a monument in their area in order to ensure ongoing maintenance and greater protection through increased civic value.
The Heritage Council is now looking for new groups to join its Adopt A Monument Programme and to adopt a monument in their locality. They are interested in hearing from communities across Ireland, including new communities and minority groups, as well as established voluntary groups that have been caring for a monument for years. The Adopt a Monument scheme will provide expertise, mentoring, support and networking to help to preserve and protect the monument for future generations.
If you are interested in this scheme, more information can be found at https://www.heritagecouncil.ie/projects/aam. The closing date for completed applications is 13th November at 5:00pm and applications are to be submitted to adoptamonument@heritagecouncil.ie.
