The National Folklore Survey for England is go!

On Wednesday 5 February 2025, Sheffield Hallam based members of the project team along with other members of the Centre for Contemporary Legend invited university colleagues to help launch the National Folklore Survey for England.

It was standing room only as staff and students from the across the university gathered to hear our presentation and, most importantly, enjoy home-baked brownies and prosecco.

The launch proved a chance for the team to offer more information about the project, detailing its aims, scope, parameters and methodologies, and take questions. We were delighted at the enthusiasm with which our project was received, and we look forward to sharing more about the Survey as we progress.
