October 2019 – March 2022

Area:

Throughout The Isles

This project will enable North Isles communities and visitors to better understand and appreciate their natural heritage.

This project has developed interpretation resources for each of the North Isles.

The project outputs have been guided by what is most appropriate for each island, and include interpretaton about Puffins in Westray - in the form of a 'Puffin Cairn', steel interpretation panels, pop-up displays and a multi-layered interactive display about designated sites in Sanday.

An exciting element of the project is the development a digital, interactive guide to marine wildlife in the seas around the isles. This includes explorations of important habitats such as maerl beds, kelp forests and sea cliffs as well as illustrating the importance of these places to key species.
