DigVentures is crowdfunding a dig to unearth the story of the Iron Age village and Roman family who once lived at the foot of Wittenham Clumps. Help make the dig happen - alongside our archaeologists!
Archaeology isn't just for adults! Bring the family to enjoy some hands-on archaeology with the DigVentures team. You'll have plenty of fun as we uncover the story of a Roman family at Earth Trust.
Archaeology for teenagers?! You got it! Bring your teens to Earth Trust for a day out investigating Roman and Iron Age history. Explore the remains of a Roman villa and Iron Age village at the foot of an ancient hillfort, alongside the DigVentures team! They'll get to search for archaeological clues, all while hanging out with kids their age. It's more grown-up than DigCamp, but still just as much fun.
Co-leadership is on the rise across the UK heritage and third sector, with several major organisations adopting the model. But there's been little open discussion about why they made the switch, what different co-leadership models look like, or what it really takes to make them work. Is this the future of leadership? As leadership demands increasing complexity, accountability and public scrutiny, is the CEO role still a one-person job? We’re hosting a conversation to have an open sector dialogue between three co-CEO pairs who are living it.

Human remains are a sensitive topic in archaeology. So what happens when archaeologists unearth a burial? This new course will take you step-by-step through the excavation process, introduce you to how scientists study them, and what happens next once our studies are complete.
Learn how archaeological finds are excavated, identified, and cared for. Featuring practical exercises you can try at home, you’ll gain access to a world of study that often takes place behind closed doors – and walk away with practical knowledge that you can apply on a dig, in the Finds Room, or to your own studies.
Not sure when and where you want to dig? Grab a Gift Certificate and decide later! Turn someone you love into an archaeologist for a day, a weekend, a week or even two whole weeks, or just treat yourself. Our Gift Certificates are valid towards any DigVentures excavation within one year from purchase, so you can buy now, and make that near-impossible decision later!
