Glasgow Women’s Library is a vibrant information hub relating to women’s lives in the city.
Glasgow Women’s Library’s Women Make History group launched Glasgow’s first Women’s Heritage Walk in June 2007 as part of the West End Festival programme. Since then, we have continued to lead out walks in the West End during the spring and summer months and have expanded our range of guided walks for the general public to include trails in the city centre, walks on specific themes and for specific groups and a walk in the East of the city at the Glasgow Necropolis in partnership with Friends of the Glasgow Necropolis.
This app includes these walks with detailed information on the attraction and artefacts dotted around our city. The walks are designed to be enhance life, health and learning. They have been developed with grown-ups in mind but we have had good feedback from young people and children too.
GWL learners, volunteers, sessional staff and members of the Learning Team are involved in the development of these walks and we are always looking for more content and information, whether you want to contact us through the website or input your ideas during or after a walk. There are lots of ways to get involved in the Women Make History project.
