What is it like to win an Epic Award?

Barra Bunting Project tell their story

Barra Bunting Project“We were very humbled to win the Scottish Epic Award,” says Sarah MacLean of Barra Bunting Project, “and are still coming to terms with the fact that our little project won!
“The Epic Award has given us an excellent start to the project and is something we are extremely proud of. It has given us excellent publicity and the prize has allowed us to promote the project better, in our local area and further afield.
“We really enjoyed the trip to the beautiful City of Derry for the Winners’ Reception, to find out about all the other winning projects and make connections.  Recently we were visited by some of the Welsh winners and it was super to have that link.
“The flags are currently up in our local produce shop where they can be admired, and they will decorate all the local community events throughout the summer.  We are hoping to be able to take on a sessional worker soon, who will be employed to take the project to the next level.”
