We're visiting North Ayrshire for the first episode of our Scotland's Stories podcast.

During our Community Campfires residencies earlier this year, Scottish Book Trust spent the week at Garnock Valley and Irvine, asking the communities if they had a story to share.

Podcast produced by Chris Dooks in partnership with North Ayrshire Libraries. Music by Zakhar Valaha.

This series is supported by the Year of Scotland's Stories.
