About
History Hub was created as part of 'Citizens: 800 years in the making', a National Lottery Heritage Fund supported project led by Dr Matthew Smith at Royal Holloway, University of London. It explores the history of liberty, protest, rebellion and reform from Magna Carta to the Suffragettes and beyond.
History Hub has been designed not just as a free resource for schools and colleges but as a space where Royal Holloway students and early career researchers can gain experience in researching, script writing, and presenting educational videos.
Regular contributors have included: Dr Claire Kennan, Dr Steven Franklin, Dr Katie Carpenter, Angela Platt, Elena Rossi, Sam Angell and Dr Michaela Jones.
To learn more about Citizens visit our website or follow us on Twitter @Citizens800, and for more news from the Department of History at Royal Holloway follow @RHULHistory.
