Sharing our Past, Building our Future

PODCASTS: Fifteen local residents (and a couple of visitors) have shared with us their memories of growing up with the station.  The audio recordings are now available as a set of free podcasts for you to enjoy.

All made possible with funding from the National Lottery Heritage fund and the Struan Trust.

Our oral history project

MIKE’S STATION FILM:

The story of one local resident gets special attention, and this has now become a part-animated film, called Mike’s Station and it traces the station’s history from 1943 to 2023.

MIKE’S STATION BOOK:

A picture book for children has been produced from the film (see picture opposite) and copies can be purchased for £9.99 inc P&P by emailing us.

Both the film and the book have been shared with local children at a workshop at Blair Atholl primary school.  Additional background information in the form of a Teachers’ Pack is available using the same email link.

THE EXHIBITION:

Our project reaches a highlight in August 2024 with a free exhibition in Blair Atholl Village Hall, so that everyone can share in what we have learned. Come along on 16 to 18 August 2024.
