Between 4-16 May 2021, during Covid, the Living Archive MK, MK City Discovery Centre, Pooleyville and MK City Council delivered an online programme of talks, screenings, events and activities celebrating the 40th anniversary of Homeworld ‘81 - a significant and nationally important Housing Expo. The Homeworld 2021 project website, is now archived, but it has useful information and links to online activities which can still be accessed, including a New Towns Quiz.

A new Homeworld MK Trail was also created from the archive photos, memories, oral history interviews and publications and a documentary film was produced for the anniversary. You can download the MK Trails app to any Iphone or Android device. You can view the design heritage trail on the Look Again website.
