Stories of Harrow
Preserving the memories and lived experiences of our communities




Much of the history of Harrow focuses on ‘metroland’, yet the majority of the communities in Harrow arrived in the borough within the last 75 years. Now, the stories and heritage of these communities is in danger of being lost.
Through the Stories of Harrow project, Harrow Giving is offering underrepresented groups the funding and support to come together and save the stories of their heritage. These stories will then be shared with the wider Harrow community, enriching and challenging people’s perspective of our hometown.
