Bringing history to life
Welcome to Restore The Story CIC
Our vision is to involve the local community, and enable them to engage with their heritage. We aim to bring the past to life and to raise funds through exciting events and visitor experiences, which will not only bring the local community together, but will add value and interest for the visitors to the Island particularly in the summer months.
About Us
Interpreting History Visually
Restore The Story CIC has been set up to benefit the community of the Isle of Wight, by helping to restore heritage assets which have been lost/abandoned or left in a ruinous state. Our aim is to gain funding and to turn these areas into learning opportunities, by involving local volunteers in restoring and investigating their past, and by interpreting the area for future generations and for visitors to learn more about the heritage of our Island.
