Join us on the 30th January to learn how to use Places That We Know: a new iOS and Android app for the Garnock Valley, the 3 Towns, Kilwinning and Irvine.

Developed alongside local people, this app puts the tools you need to create an engaging and interactive multimedia heritage trail in your hands.

Whether you are a heritage organisation, community group, school group or local enthusiast, you can start creating walking/cycling trails to share and celebrate the local stories and special places around you.

Using the app, you can record your GPS position automagically as you walk, add Points of Interest and capture photos or audio recordings on location. If you want to dig deeper, upload larger files or carefully edit the route, you can log on to the Places That We Know website and use the Online Editor to finish your trail. When you're finished, you can Publish your trail to share it with everyone through the app.

In the workshop, we will cover how to use the App and Online Editor and discuss what makes a good heritage trail.

There will be computers available to use and support from our team to help you get started creating your own trail. No digital expertise is required. Just enthusiasm.

We'd recommend downloading the app and signing up with an account in advance.
