The idea started from a conversation between members at a project planning meeting about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sanditoksvig.com\/\">Sandi Toksvig&#8217;s<\/a>\u00a0 campaign to &#8216;write in&#8217; the stories of women that are largely missing from Wikipedia. As the conversation developed, members decided to seek to uncover the stories of the women of Salisbury, both past and present, who have made the city the great place it is today.<\/p>\n<p>A project team began scoping out ideas for how this might be done and gained Club approval to apply for a Heritage Lottery Grant to help deliver the project. The Club was\u00a0 aware that in October 2020, the city of Salisbury was to celebrate its 800 years of being a city, so it was agreed that the team could tie the project into that timescale.<\/p>\n<p>When the project started members didn\u2019t realise just how huge a project it would be or how life would change for everyone in those two years, but members are very proud of what has been achieved.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of Her Salisbury Story is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>to celebrate the lives of Salisbury women, past and present by promoting the contribution that women have made, and are continuing to make, to Salisbury and beyond<\/li>\n<li>to inspire women and girls to achieve their potential, realise their aspirations and have an equal voice<\/li>\n<li>to create a digital legacy of our local heritage, showcasing the stories of inspirational women that the public can access and which can also be archived at local museums<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/salisbury\/files\/2021\/12\/Xmas-Tree-.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-5516\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/salisbury\/files\/2021\/12\/Xmas-Tree--300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/salisbury\/files\/2021\/12\/Xmas-Tree--300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/salisbury\/files\/2021\/12\/Xmas-Tree--150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/salisbury\/files\/2021\/12\/Xmas-Tree-.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>At Christmas 2019 the project began at the St Thomas\u2019 Christmas Tree festival, with a Her Salisbury Story Christmas Tree, asking the public to suggest inspirational women HSS should find out more about.
