Organisation aims and objectives
Hillfoots Tales is an inclusive community organisation; researching and telling the stories, old and new, of our local area to re-connect our communities and people with the landscape and all its rich diversity. Hillfoots Tales aims to advance the education of the public in Clackmannanshire and Hillfoots area; in the art of storytelling, to collect and share the myths, the legends and the history of the area, to encourage public interest in the oral storytelling tradition, heritage and the local landscape. Stories connect us to the past and to those who went before us, connecting us to a future we cannot see but touch. Our mission statement is “Hillfoots Tales, connecting, people and place on a global level through the magic of storytelling.” We envision a world where people and places are connected through the magic of storytelling, creating a strong sense of well-being and acceptance. Our work with communities is based on delivering the values on connection, creativity, health and learning on a solid foundation of acceptance.
