Talking About Heritage6pm, Thursday 5 November, free online eventScotland’s history and heritage can mean so many things to so many people.This free online event aims to equip people to have new – sometimes difficult – conversations about our places, people, traditions, our very sense of identity.While everything around us seems uncertain, taking a bit of time to talk about the past can give us a sense of stability, wellbeing and reassurances that this too will pass.But heritage can also challenge us. History isn’t a static thing – it’s being created all the time. New research is always coming to light, uncovering hidden histories about people and places that the history books forgot but deserve our attention today.Join us on Thursday 5 November as we talk about heritage and the different ways we acknowledge, share and celebrate our past.For further information please get in touch at talkingaboutheritage@hes.scot&#x27;Timings:6pm – Welcome and presentation6.15 – Panel discussion6:30 - Q&amp;A
