The blog has been heavily dominated of late by our Walking for Heritage project. I promise I will stop writing about it soon! Ever since our lovely young people created their walking trail we have been working hard to re-make their prototype into a version we can publish. Only very minor changes were needed as the prototype itself was of a really high quality and had some wonderful, original features.
Take a look at the final version at the link below (its sadly too large to up-load to the Blog!)
We will now get some paper copies into the leaflet holders in our galleries and make the trail available on our website. All that’s needed then is for people to get walking! If you’re looking for something to do in Birmingham why not check it out and let us know how you got on!

any chance we could change the group image to the one below as I look like I’ve swallowed a fly in the current one…. Otherwise the trail looks great, in fact even better than the prototype
The leaflet is really colourful and attractive! Massive thank you to the staff at Thinktank for making it happen. Sheraz’s photo suggestion is great. Can’t wait to pick one up and have a go at the walk! Yay!
It looks SO GOOD, I love it!! I’m so glad that all our original ideas have been incorporated in the final product!
(I have noticed a spelling mistake in the introduction, “unlimatedly”. Shouldn’t it be ultimately?
This afternoon (4th October) my sister Julie and I spent a very pleasant hour exploring historic Digbeth, guided by the excellent walking trail leaflet we picked up at Thinktank. Really interesting buildings, some terrific stretches of industrial waterway, amazingly massive railway viaducts – and an unexpected, fascinating trip back to our youth at a 1960s/70s/80s memorabilia shop about halfway round! We enjoyed our taste of ‘the alternative Birmingham’ not normally seen by tourists.

Hi Sheraz! Lol that’s no problem at all! In fact I prefer the one you’ve sugested as the IKON boat man isn’t in it!
Maybe you did swallow a fly?!

Thank you so much!
