WORKING WITH YOU
From small community groups to national oganisations, we work with everyone
We know it’s not always possible to have the in house expertise and time to run the projects you want. Tell us what learning outcomes you want to achieve and we will deliver it for you – with our trade mark flexible, friendly approach – and drawing on our talents in drama, tour guiding, object handling and heritage activity development both live and online.
- Short on budget and time? Talk to us. We can adapt to suit time frames and budgets
- Concerned about inclusion and accessibility? We are passionate about inclusion and experienced in adapting workshops and roles so that everyone working with us, regardless of their barriers, can participate, feel safe and can make a valuable contribution
This approach has been valued by our diverse range of clients including Historic Environment Scotland, National Library of Scotland, National Trust for Scotland and the Royal Collection Trust at the Queen’s Gallery.
