Stephen Barker MA
I am an independent Heritage Advisor currently working for Oxfordshire Museum Services, the Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum and Oxford-Brookes University amongst others. I have curated and design exhibitions including several First World War Centenary projects. In 2012 I ran the national Europeana/Oxford University IT Great War Collections Day in Banbury. Until 2011, I worked at Banbury Museum and was a trustee of the Battlefields Trust, working on HLF projects. In 2009, I had published ‘Lancashire’s Forgotten Heroes’ – a history of the 8th East Lancs in the Great War. I completed an MA (Distinction) in Museum Studies at Leicester University in 2011.
Stephen is also a member of SOFO’s Academic Advisory Board.
