How this toolkit works

This toolkit is a collection of resources that can be used to help with a task. It is not necessarily designed to be read from cover to cover but to be used according to your needs.

This section of the toolkit is divided into 3:

D.    Introduction to Interpretation

Gives an introduction to interpretation and an overview of the planning processes involved in an interpretive project.

E.    Getting Started : Planning your Interpretation Project

Explains the process of planning an interpretation project in more detail, with tips and checklists and some examples of good interpretation.

F.    Doing it : Implementing your Interpretation Project

Deals with the implementation of an interpretation project and has information about case studies from the Brecon Beacons National Park. It also includes appendices giving more information about materials noted in Sections E and F.

 Case studies:

  • Govilon Heritage Group

  • Henry Vaughan Walk

  • Ystradowen and Llynfell Ward Summer Fete

  • Gwynfe Spring Show
