This audio forms part of a series of audio interviews conducted in 2023 by Smartify as part of the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands project. Listen and discover the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands through the eyes of the stitchers of the Tapestry of the Highlands and Islands.
Join Janet as she shares the incredible connections between the Iron Age people and the modern community at Strathspey and the timeless importance of the River Spey.
Without the Spey there would be no Strathspey. There would be no Speyside. The culture and the history has been linked to the river since time immemorial.
