Samriti Hans

Coming Soon
Role
Administrative Assistant

Samriti joined Legacy WM in 2024 as an administrative assistant, providing project support on Legacy’s exciting new initiatives such as BADA. Samriti also provides administrative support for the entire Legacy team.

Samriti developed her passion for the heritage sector during her undergraduate studies at Aston University where she received her History and Politics BSc (Hons) degree alongside the school prize in history. During her studies, Samriti went on a tour around the Gun Quarter led by Black Heritage Walks Network. This was an eye-opening experience about the depth of Birmingham’s cultural and racial history. This innovative work, in highlighting an unseen part of Birmingham’s history, inspired her to volunteer at Legacy. 

Samriti also researched Aston University’s origins as the Birmingham Municipal Technical School (BMTS). Additionally, she undertook duties relating to the preservation and digitisation of archival material from the BMTS. This ignited a dedication to uplifting and enriching the local community that she hopes to channel into her role at Legacy.
