"Off Flint" – Celebrating our town, castle & coast is an exciting new project to involve local people in recording, conserving and celebrating the rich heritage of Flint town, castle and coast. 

Building on the success of the Story Shop in 2018 individuals and groups are invited to get involved in collecting and sharing old photos, artefacts and ey stories of Flint. These will form the basis of a new community archive in Flint Library so that the information gathered is widely accessible to everyone. 

There will be informal drop-in sessions at Flint Library Free with training in interviewing, recording and editing skills available for anyone interested in volunteering with the project.

Local schools are invited to join in with opportunities for the pupils to gather material and help to interpret the rich heritage of their town, castle and coast.

The project runs until March 2024 so there is plenty of time to share and celebrate Flint’s proud history.
