All Ireland Heritage Skills Programme: Registration closing 10th April

The All Ireland Heritage Skills Programme supports those working in the construction sector in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland to push their skills to the next level and continue on their journey to becoming the next generation of master craftspeople.

The All Ireland Heritage Futures Skills Programme partners believe that it is crucial to preserve the wisdom and knowledge that embody many of the traditional building skills which have shaped our historical built environment. As many workers in the sector now reach retirement age it is vital that these skills are passed on to the next generation of master craftspeople. Ensuring that we can continue to restore and conserve our history, but importantly demonstrate the significant role that traditional craft skills can play in creating new spaces and places.

Programme Dates: July 2026 – June 2027

This programme is made possible with support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, The Heritage Council and Department for Communities, The Apollo Foundation and the Amaryllis Fleming Foundation.
