Highland Heroines Talk, the Women history may have forgotten
Step into the untold story of the Highlands — a landscape shaped not only by mountains and clans, but by extraordinary women whose voices history tried to silence. This immersive talk uncovers the stories of Highland women who were dismissed as witches, erased from records, or overlooked despite the vital roles they played in their communities. Many were healers, knowledge keepers, craftswomen, mothers, and quiet leaders whose courage sustained families and villages through times of hardship and change.
But this story does not end in the past. Today, a new generation of Highland women is rising — cultural protectors, creative activists, truth-tellers and modern rebels who are shaping Scotland’s future while honouring the legacy of those who came before.
This intimate talk celebrates the women they feared then… and the women they’d fear now.

The Merchant City: A Self Guided Audio Tour of Glasgow
Experience the magic of GPS on this self-guided walking tour through Glasgow.
Three hundred years ago the wider Glasgow area was mostly countryside, with the Cathedral at its centre. The city began to change in the 1500s when Scotland became a Protestant country. Lucrative pilgrimages to Glasgow that had long been made by Roman Catholics ended, replaced by tobacco from America.
You’ll hear how Glasgow went from surviving to thriving, transitioning from the tobacco trade to cotton and, later, heavy engineering to eventually become the burgeoning ‘Second City’ of the Empire. How did these merchants become wealthy beyond our imaginings? Slavery.
We’ll explore Glasgow’s roles in slavery and its abolition while we walk the streets of the Merchant City district, discovering how the city developed from the 1600s until today. Everywhere you turn, from George Square to the Royal Exchange Square, you’ll encounter the wealth of Glasgow’s merchants written in stone.

Glasgow through the ages: An audio tour discovering the city's humble beginnings
Join me on this self guided audio tour through the oldest part of Glasgow.
We’ll start at Glasgow Cathedral, where we’ll meet St Mungo, the city’s patron saint, and learn about Glasgow’s humble beginnings 1,500 years ago. We’ll bustle along Glasgow’s High Street next, where a small city had started to take shape 900 years later, in the 1400s. It was busy with the thousands of pilgrims who came to worship at the shrine of St Mungo. In the 1700s, there were Tobacco Lords on the High Street, and Glasgow had become “the cleanest and beautifulest and best built city in Britain,” according to one English visitor. (He did add, “London excepted,” but in Glasgow we like to forget about that.)
On the way, you’ll see:
A herb garden filled with medicinal plants
Street art that tells the story of the city
A roundabout on which stands the steeple of a building once used as a prison
A greenhouse of exotic plants in the shape of an upside down ship
