Thank you @ArchHistDarling We are delighted that these women’s voices and insights - from their work Cumbernauld - have been included. Was a real joy working with the @VADundee team to do this.
Hurrah that @VADundee has included @VoExperience in the Scottish Design galleries in a display on Cumbernauld.

I had the pleasure of exploring lessons that can be learned from @womenslibrary and other libraries when it comes to feminist town planning for the @scotonsunday support our libraries campaign.
Findings: women and books = iconic duo. 📚
