In ‘A Red Notebook Manoeuvre’, Tim Brennan leads participants on a guided walk around Shrewsbury; taking in Darwin’s birthplace at Mount House and The Lion Hotel, where the young naturalist set off by stage coach for that illustrious journey on the HMS Beagle.

Armed with ‘the notebook’, in which Tim collects thoughts and voices (its not just an attractive red prop ), Tim’s ‘manoeuvres’ (or tactical walks) make 'new connections between geography, social history and personal memory' and so says The Guardian newspaper .

Highlights & News

The Shift-Time Blogging Project

Alongside the main Shift-Time Festival we're running a project to get Shrewsbury and the surrounding area blogging. We want people to use the festival to experiment with all sorts of "social media" services, including weblogs, photo and video sharing sites. The end result, we hope, is to give Shrewsbury the tools to talk to itself about things that matter, whatever they may be.
