Make Your Way is a new project encouraging local people to walk and cyclemore whilst exploring the rich heritage of their local area. The project is focussed on the communities of Larkhall, Lanark, Carluke, Stonehouse and Glassford, and includes multiple ways for people to get involved, including activities like Dorodango mud ball challenges, walks with periscopes, art workshops, creative place name activities and creating new art installations to mark certain walking routes.
If you would like to get involved in any of the events, or have information you would like to share about your area then get in touch with the Make Your Way team via myw@icecreamarchitecture.c
You can keep up to date with the project via the Clyde and Avon Valley Landscape Partnership website www.clydeandavonvalley.org
