National Sporting Heritage Day

Held on the 30th September every year, National Sporting Heritage Day is our flagship campaign and provides a focus point for sporting heritage in the UK. It aims to raise awareness of the relevance of sporting heritage, encourage new and different audiences to have access to these collections, and encourage heritage, community and sporting organisations to recognise and celebrate sporting heritage as an ongoing, significant element of their work, not just something of importance during major sporting events.
