Emerging theme of first two talks at today's @CHCScotland conference is looking beyond the superficial, tangible heritage for the hidden intangible stories that are often buried deep inside and often have to be teased out.

[Scotland's Churches Trust @SChurchesTrust]

Next speakers are from @CoastScot who spent the last few years gathering the stories of residents of the west coast of Scotland "The Coast that Shaped the World.

The project is over but their gathered stories have been collated and published here 👇

We love the stories Camille is sharing with us in real-time, highlighting their uniqueness in the context of the Scottish Isles ❤️

[Scotland’s Community Heritage Conversations @CHCScotland]

They have developed an app where they tell the stories shared with them.

They also share the stories through a series of exhibitions in different isles of Scotland.

Next up, we have Camille Dressler & Katie Murray.

They're here to talk about their paper titled "Coast - a project by and for our coastal communities." This project combines heritage and tourism, sharing stories & encouraging more people to connect with heritage.

This beautiful spot is Loch Arkaig near Scotland's West Coast. It's a place with plenty of incredible stories that you can discover for yourself, thanks to the COAST project!

[Scotland's Stories - Graeme @StoryScotland]

Where do I get my stories from?

That’s one of the most common questions I get asked and I want to share @CoastScot with you as one of the answers, since it’s something I think you should use as well.

"Coming by boat - MV Brigger (Wooden, 30ft Norwegian motor boat) from Corpach and down the Crinnan and on to Greenock.

Two amazing canals - lots of birds and dolphins to entertain us"
