The web site is officially launched

Launch of Westray's Living Heritage website at the Heritage Centre

After lots of hard work from February onwards, our latest project was officially launched on Saturday evening 29th September.

Westray's Living Heritage is an exciting new project which puts Westray Heritage Trust at the heart of island life. It will leave a lasting legacy for future generations of islanders and it will provide a snapshot of life in Westray during the early 21st century. We hope, in time, that it will grow to become a full-blown record of island residents and their day-to-day activities.
