Description
<strong>How Aberdeen Women's Alliance City Centre Heritage Walk developed:</strong> Following the group's involvement with Women of Scotland's <i>Mapping Memorials to Women website</i> (<a href="http://www.womenofscotland.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.womenofscotland.org.uk/</a>), with our partners at Glasgow Women's Library (<a href="http://www.womenslibrary.org.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.womenslibrary.org.uk/</a>), at the Central Library in February 2013, we felt there was a number of women in Aberdeen who have made an important and significant contribution to the life of our city that we rarely ever hear about. This inspired a group of volunteers to develop the Aberdeen City Centre Women's Heritage Walk. By creating this virtual version of the walk we aim to share the many stories of these wonderful women and their achievements with as many people as possible. We also aimed to enrich the account of these women by recording, and making available, the fascinating memories of members from community members. <strong>How to get involved:</strong> Aberdeen women's history is still largely unwritten and not visible to the public. There are many ways women can get involved with us to address this. You are welcome help us with research or join our tour guide teams. If you have information that can be added to this walk, suggestions of how it can be improved, or memories you would like to share - we want to hear from you! <strong>How to contact us:</strong> Email: <a href=mailto:awainfo@btinternet.com>awainfo@btinternet.com</a> Postal address: Aberdeen Women's Alliance c/o Equalities team Aberdeen City Council Marischal College Broad Street Aberdeen AB10 1AB <strong>Many thanks to our virtual tour partners:</strong> Aberdeen City Council and Aberdeen City Libraries <strong>And special thanks to:</strong> Aberdeen Local Studies
