WHO WE ARE?

We are students from Dundee and Angus College, learning English in Arbroath. We are people from different countries, different ages, different backgrounds and we have different experiences but we are all living in Arbroath. We all have been inspired by Alfie Dickson, a local resident, to start Arbroath Voices project. Our lecturer at college, Linda Archibald, encouraged us to do the project to learn all kinds of different skills.

 

We wanted to do this project so that we could be inspired by local business people and learn from their experiences.  We also wanted to share their stories and promote Arbroath all over the world using a website.  This meant that we could show off and develop our own technical and creative skills, too.
