Heroine Media CIC is a UK-based social enterprise dedicated to uncovering, producing and sharing stories that centre women, heritage and cultural memory in bold, accessible ways.

We create original podcasts, short-form films, live music experiences, events and digital storytelling that bring overlooked histories to life. Our work bridges academic research, performance and screen storytelling, using music alongside narrative to connect audiences emotionally with the past in ways that feel immediate and contemporary.

We collaborate with communities, heritage organisations and creative partners to produce work that is both culturally rich and publicly engaging. From podcasts and on-site performances to digital tours and filmed content, our projects are designed to reach audiences where they are and invite them into the story.

At the heart of Heroine Media CIC is a commitment to amplifying underrepresented voices, particularly women whose contributions have been marginalised or forgotten. We believe these stories belong not just in archives, but in the public imagination and on stages.

Alongside content creation, we develop replicable creative models that empower local communities to tell their own stories, from oral history projects to place-based digital tours and live programming. By combining creative production, music and accessible technology, we support sustainable, community-led heritage initiatives that can grow beyond a single project.

Our mission is simple: to reshape whose stories are told, how they are experienced, and who gets to tell them.
