The Wigtown Women’s Walk group recently launched a highly innovative project to create a women's heritage walk commemorating the contribution women have made to their community. Glasgow Women’s Library is supporting the project. The next step of the project is to compile an anthology and audio companion for the walk.
The WWW group is inviting writers to contribute a short poem or story inspired by the women and or events in Wigtown. The closing date is the last day of March but if anyone is interested and needs to negotiate time, please contact: Kriss Nichol 01671 402588
